“He has experience in taking care of a high energy dog, at first I was cautious as I dont know how yoki will be with kids 10 under, but he did ok. Jarrad was trying to figure out how to work the apps but eventually was able to send photos. Will see him next time!”
“Kendal and Dre are amazing! River loves to visit and has the very best time! It makes leaving her that much easier when we know she is so well cared for!”
“Audrey and Karson were awesome! They took such great care of our pup while we were away and made sure to send pictures and updates. We would be more than happy to have Boomer stay with them again!!”
“Tara is AMAZING! Our pup boarded with her full time for a week while we were out of town. Professional, caring, reliable, and communicative, just to name a few of her wonderful care giving qualities. Lots of pictures and communication every day. Even on short notice and on top of that our pup started going into a heat cycle while in her care. Tara kept us updated and made sure our pup was safe, loved, and cared for. Could not be happier with this experience and I highly recommend Tara!”
“I left my puppy with Olga for 4 days while we were out of town. Olga did a great job taking care of my little guy and setting my mind at ease while we were gone. He had plenty of friends to play with while there, and I got to see some great play shots via the photo updates. It was the perfect home away from home for him!”
“Dr Hope and Scott are amazing dog loving people. I did not ask for walks because they have a great backyard and it is huge to let my dogs get the exercise they need for the 4 days. They are happy to be home but they enjoyed their time there. This won’t be the last time we will book with her.”
“Amanda and her kids did a great job watching our dog, Hans, and treated him like a part of their family. He loved cuddling with her daughter and husband. We plan on using them again soon.”
“Linda and Brian cared for our Rue girl for two weeks while we were out of the country. It’s impossible to put into words how much we appreciate the love and care that was extended to our baby. She made fast friends with their sweet dog, Carmi, and Linda sent daily pictures or videos showing them having so much fun together and then napping together from exhaustion. Linda made the time to meet us well in advance of caring for Rue and really listened to what Rue needed, including walks, being brushed, the ability to have her crate to sleep or take breaks in when she wanted, and following her feeding schedule. Linda allowed Rue free rein in her home, and even made time for her to relax on the lanai to people and bird watch; something she loves to do at home. Rue had an amazing time, and this allowed my husband and I to really enjoy our vacation knowing she was having the time of her life too. We wholeheartedly recommend Linda for pet sitting services. I don’t think you’ll find anyone as wonderful as Linda and Brian out there! (Thank you so much for everything, Linda!)”
“Felicia is kind and caring. I always felt like my dog was in great hands. Always appreciated her updates, photos, and videos. Would Definitely recommend her to others and would use her again myself.”
“Very nice people. They took great care of my fur baby and kept me posted with text messages and pictures while they watched him over a three day period. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using Alicia and our 11 year old dog had previously been going to another lady for several years. His first night with Alicia he was a little sad and unsure but he acclimated quickly. Alicia was very responsive to us when we reached out and made him feel safe and secure.”
“James took such great care of my dog Fletcher for a 3 night stay! I got daily updates with pics and James had Fletcher happily waiting for an easy quick pick up! My dog LOVED playing with James' dogs. HIGHLY recommend James!”
“This was our first time using Rover or a pet sitting service and Lori was great. She sent updates and pictures daily and we could see how our dog was happy and well cared for. We've used many kennel and pet resorts over the years but none of them could compare with the attention and care given our dog. We're happy to recommend Lori and will definitely have our dog stay with her in the future.”
“Natalya took care of our 18 month maltipoo, Charlee, while we were out of town for the holidays. She was absolutely wonderful with Charlee! I felt completely at ease with her and she sent daily photos and videos to us. Charlee also had a great time playing with her dog Masha! I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Leslie is a dedicated and responsive dog sitter! Her updates are thorough and frequent. And photos are great. My dog Fiona was very comfortable with Leslie and her cuddly Pug. Leslie really understood Fiona and I highly recommend her dogsitting!”
“Cheri is so caring and knowledgeable about animals, dogs in particular! So thankful that we found her to care for our 4-legged baby. Our pup had a great time with Cheri, and we received photos of their time together. Cheri was flexible and super responsive; our dog came home clean and happy; and we highly recommend Cheri!”
“She was willing and happy to take in our pups while still recovering from the hurricane! Thank you again so much for taking such good care of my babies.”
“Mikayla is wonderful! She’s so good with all pets, she just gets them. She cared for our 6 month old puppy and 1 1/2 year old and they were so happy. Great space to play and her dogs were kind and loving. We received photos and updates that allowed us to know all was well. Mikayla communicated beautifully when we reached out in need and was accommodating to our flight schedules. It’s comforting to have found her and we will certainly reach out again. Thank you, Mikayla and family!”
