“Casey is phenomenal! She kept me updated the entire time my dog was with her. I’ve never felt more secure knowing that my dog was with someone else. She kept me updated with pictures and videos without me having to ask. My dog loves her. We will be back!! 🤍🤍🤍”



“Very caring and kind people. I had my boy, Little Buddy, do an overnight stay as a test run for when I go on vacation in a few months. I've never "boarded" my dog before. When I Google searched, most of the places showed pictures that seemed so sterile, concrete and linoleum, with so many dogs milling around I was afraid Buddy would be intimidated, overwhelmed, scared, and well, unhappy. So I thought I'd try Rover.com and see if I could find someone who would maybe LIKE having my sweet boy around. I loved Jessica and Carol's profile, especially with pictures. Jessica sent me pictures during his stay so I could see him exploring in the back yard with the other dogs, and lounging around on the dog beds. All things that he does at home! So I knew he felt comfortable. And, more importantly, I felt comfortable having him there. I will absolutely use their services again. THANK YOU, JESSICA AND CAROL! :-)”


“My boy is a sisssyyyy and Amber went above and beyond to help him feel comfortable during his stay!! Wrapped him in my blankets, took him on plenty of (attempted) walks (my doggo’s a sissy, remember?), and offered all the cuddles and pets to keep him feeling reassured until I was back in town. The fact that she keeps it to one pet at a time was a life saver- my big baby wouldn’t do well w others. Will be using Amber over and over again! Never trying anywhere else!”


“Thomas was wonderful with Emma! She felt very comfortable with him, and he made sure she got lots of play time and pets. I really appreciated the pictures and updates he provided, too. Emma will be excited to stay with him again!”


“Sara and her family were AMAZING!!! We have a 4 month old puppy and we were nervous about leaving him and, we had to leave him overnight. Sara took him into her home and not only loved him like it was her own but took him on so many walks, play activities and puppy training. She went far beyond my expectations, nearly to the point where I felt bad taking my puppy home as he was having so much fun! I am so grateful we found Sara!”


“Our pups were so excited to return to Ashleigh, Bill, & Tucker's home for their 2nd visit. We received great photos of the pups playing & having fun throughout our time away. We are thankful for the great care Ashleigh & Bill provided!”


“Our boys had another great time staying with Daphne and her family! We received plenty of updates and videos of our dogs enjoying their stay! So thankful we have a caring sitter for those times we can’t take our dogs with us.”

“Abigail was amazing. She was able to make our anxious dog feel right at home. It was the first time we have left him and didn’t need to worry about him for one second. We will use Abigail for all of our future trips. She sent us pictures of them on walks and playing with other dogs. You could tell she really enjoyed having him while we were away.”


“Honestly the best place we have ever left our dogs. They were constantly being walked and cared for. We got several pictures of them when we were away too! Super flexible too! Highly recommended!!”


“Greg has a beautiful family, exceeding my expectations and keeping my Lil’ guy Teddy (Yorkshire Terrier) & myself, brother & sisters from separation anxiety 😬!!!! 5 stars on communication, safe & friendly environment and much more… You will have comfort knowing he & family will take great care of your “fur baby” 🐾❤️”


“We had a really positive experience with Joe! He was very caring and thoughtful with our Lab Bambino. There was a great connection from the start between Joe, his dog Miller and Bambino - so we really felt like he was in great hands and the dogs got along so well together, it was nice Bambino had a buddy to play with during his 2-week stay. We will definitely contact Joe again for our dog boarding needs.”


“Heavyn went above and beyond to take care of my boy, I know he was treated like a member of the family while staying with her. She also was great in providing pictures and videos of him throughout his stay! 10/10 recommend 😊”


“Arlissa was GREAT with my dog Madison (the adorable lil' Beagle mix in Arlissa's photos). Arlissa sends pictures and videos at appropriate times and intervals. She was soooooooooooo very sweet to my pup and gave Madison plenty of outside "potty time" as well as play time. A++++++++++++ Thank you for what you do! I would and will definitely book with you and only you moving forward. The world needs more people like Arlissa. Thank you so very much, Steve.”


“Emily was extremely patient and kind with coordinating my dogs stay, June was passed out on the way home and I know she had an amazing time with Emily’s dogs! Will absolutely book again!”


“Very friendly and conscientious. My dogs have stayed with her multiple times and they are thrilled when we pull up. They are excited to see Tammy and her dogs. Highly recommend her.”

“My sister recommended Rebecca and I’m so glad she did. She is so sweet and truly cares for the pups she watches. I got videos & pictures daily. My little pup has the best time ! I will definitely reach out for her to watch him again for my next vacation! 10/10 recommend ?”


“Rebecca, Ethan, and their lovely family were amazing with our older dog! We are so grateful for their kindness and the care they took to let us know how well our pup was doing with them.”


“Hatsuki’s care and compassion shines in everything she does. She had special doggy treats, daily walks, pics, and updates often. My pup is a nervous clinger and she made him feel safe and loved 🤎 will recommend her to anyone!”


“Amazing dog sitter! I boarded my dog with her for a day and a night and she was great. Aubrey kept me updated on my pup and she seemed to take very well to her. Will definitely use again and recommend to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
