“Absolute wonderful experience. My first time using Rover so I was nervous especially since I always take my chihuahua with me. Erica and her husband took care of my Hemi like he was their dog. Sent updates and pictures daily so it made my birthday trip so much nicer knowing my boy was safe and having fun. If you’re local to here you’ll want to look them up. Wonderful smoke free, safe environment.”


“Elizabeth and Nick have watched our dog maisie twice and both times we have been updated with photos and messages letting us know how she’s doing. They have became our go to for dog sitting and we highly recommend using them as well. We will continue to use them in the future!”


“Brooke and her kids were very sweet to my two pups and sent them home very tired from a fun weekend. Brooke kept the dogs on their normal routine, let them sleep on the furniture, and sent daily updates with pictures. We will be booking with her again.”

“Michelle was so great at sharing pics so I could see how much our Brady enjoyed cuddling and being part of her family for Labor Day weekend. I would highly recommend her to watch your fur baby.”


“Baree is amazing! She took great care of our puppy. She took him out for regular walks and sent updates with pictures. She treated him like one of her own dogs. I'll definitely be using her again!”


“Michelle took such great care of my senior pup and provided regular updates and photos during his stay there. Her dog is so sweet and was a wonderful companion as well. Thank you, Michelle!”


“David was so kind and took such good care of our dog. He communicated with us the entire time and sent us pictures of our dog throughout his stay. Our pup even seemed sad to leave his new friends😆He will be the only dog sitter in Winston we ever use….the best!!”


“Kristina is a terrific pet sitter!! She helped us when we were in a last minute lerch. She took great care of him! I know he had a blast while staying with her! And, I LOVED that she sent us pictures of him. I will definitely book our fur baby to stay with her again when we need a pet sitter!! Thank you so much Kristina!!”


“My doggie had his first vacation with Bre and her pack and we were thoroughly pleased. She sends pictures and gives great feedback so you know what’s going on with your pup! We’ll definitely visit again ?”


“Beth was so good with my dog. It was a last minute booking and she was so incredibly accommodating. I am so appreciative of her and her gentle nature caring for my pup. She also fosters a dog and he and my dog got along well, and even tuckered my high energy border collie/aussie mix out. She was so intentional in caring for my dog that she was worried about keeping her clean after long play sessions in her fenced in yard that was muddy from the rain, and that means a lot. That somebody watching my dog would care enough to keep her clean. Thanks so much Beth, if I ever need a sitter again, I know where to turn.”



“I've used Cinthia and Fer dozens of times for sitting daycare and boarding and I think they deserve an updated review for all the love they give my dog baby. He loves staying to with them and I appreciate the attention and affection they provide :) thanks for taking care of my Cooper while I was away! ”

“Loved Morgan! She watched our three puppers while we were at the beach for a week. Our one dog has never been boarded before and the other 2 haven’t been boarded in a few years! They all did great with her! She is very sweet, communication is great and fast, and gives updates throughout your pups stay! 10/10 recommend Morgan :))”


“Ashely did a fantastic job watching our dog, Tucker. She sent us updates and was very communicative and responsive. I would highly recommend her services to others and will definitely use again in the future.”


“Natalie was welcoming and has a pet friendly home. Eddie immediately just made himself at home. Natalie gave me regular updates on Eddie's activities and how he was doing. He was very comfortable with her and quickly formed a bond with her and her "pack". I had no worries about Eddie. Although he was ready to come home with "Mommy" when I returned from my overseas trip, he was calm and happy with Natalie. I would highly recommend her for her care, attention, knowledge and overall welcoming environment. I am thankful I found her!!!!”


“Tara took care of my dog for two weeks and did a great job! Her place has lots of room for dogs to run around and play. Tara kept me up-to-date with plenty of photos, which I really appreciated. I would definitely board my dog with her again.”

“Celeste was great I paid an additional fee for her to pick Kai up & drop off at our home. I received pictures & updates of Kai everyday while we were away. After seeing the first photo & update with detailed information it eased our minds and we were able to enjoy our vacation even the more.We couldn’t have ask for a better sitter. Thanks Celeste :)”
