“Thanks to this sweet family for treating our doggo as apart of the their family. They took on a very last minute request from us, gave our dog the time of his life with park visits, and were constantly showing us pics. Very blessed to have found this sweet family. 10/10 recommend”

“Cynthia made sure my fairly anxious dog, Obi, was well cared for! This is the first time I’ve left him with someone he doesn’t know, so I was worried at first. But Cynthia kept me updated the whole time I was gone and her pictures and quick updates made me feel so much better about being away from Obi!”

“Aly was very flexible on drop off and pickup times. She sent a few photos, which was totally appropriate. Would DEFINITELY leave our dog with her again! She is now family.”

“Magda and Chris were amazing. So kind and caring with Mogi. Magda sent me regular check ins that showed how comfortable Mogi was with them. It was great knowing that Mogi was safe and happy during my weekend away.”

“Scott and Sarah were such wonderful hosts for our two dogs! They communicated daily and even included a picture of our pups on a beautiful hike! They were accommodating, fun, and friendly, and we highly recommend them! Our dogs returned home happy and pleasantly worn out from their vacation at the 2 Dog Hotel. Thanks, S&S!”

“This is the first time I have used Rover and I'm thankful this app is out there. Jocelyn B. was wonderful. I have one dog that is easy and the other can be a handful. I was thankful that I could leave for the weekend and not worry.”

“Paige was amazing with my dog Maggie! She had so much fun with Paige’s dogs and I loved getting regular photo and video updates. Maggie came home happy and tired from all the playtime. Thank you, Paige!”

“Lina and her family were so excited to have our kitten cookie for a few days while on vacation. She was informative and sent pictures of cookie while on vacation. Playtime with her kiddos was her favorite! They loved her and will be booking again in the future.”

“Whitney is amazing! She was so sweet to our high energy dog, took her on lots of walks, spent lots of time outside with her, and even ran with her! We would use her again without hesitation!! Seeing fun pics of our puppy everyday while we were away was so reassuring that she was in great hands!! Thanks Whitney!!”

“Kara was easy to work with and flexible with drop off and pick up times. She truly enjoys dogs and cats, and her dog Bandit got along great with Fritz. I will be booking again with her.”

“Nalli loves it here! She always has so much fun. Svitlana is great with communication and sending lots of pictures and videos which we love seeing. Thank you!!”


“Once again Camp Hope & Loretta was such a wonderful respit for us and such an awesome time to socialize for Biscuit. I really believe the chance to hang out with her is so helpful. Thank you Hope!!!🐾🐾🐾🐾”

“She was awesome and I didn’t worry about Simon while we were away. It was the first time we left him so at first I was very nervous. Simon had separation anxiety during his stay and she was patient and understanding. She kept us updated on how he was doing throughout his stay with texts and pictures. Will definitely be booking her again for any future trips without hesitation.”

“Paula is a wonderful, trustworthy sitter :) we left our puppy in her care for a week and have also dropped him off for daycare many times. She always provides detailed information about his day and even has offered suggestions/adjustments about behavior modification if needed.”

“We absolutely love having Katina be our dogs' boarder. She is so sweet with the animals, sends pictures/videos when we've requested them, and the dogs don't want to leave! Her set up is amazing for all of the animals as well, and the other dogs that come to her house are so nice.”

“Jennifer was very quick to respond and sent me lots of pictures of my pup 😁 which I really appreciated and made me feel better since it was our first time using her. We will be doing it again. 🫶🏼”

“Heather did a wonderful job sitting for my dogs!! I’ve never boarded my 3 1/2 year old standard poodle (Charlie) and I was having severe separation anxiety. Heather sent multiple photos every day and commented on how they were doing and how much they ate at breakfast and dinner. My dogs looked like they were on vacation and I swear, in one of the photos it looks like Charlie is smiling as he’s leaping through the air! They slept like babies once we got home. I’m excited that I have found a sitter who I can trust with my pups and I feel comfortable leaving them overnight now. I highly recommend Heather as she provides the same quality of care, fun outside time and love that I provide for my pups.”
