Cindy was very nice and welcoming. She provided photos and updates of Louie, and he seemed to have enjoyed his stay at her home. I would book with Cindy again.

Corrine is great! i received pictures of my little man everyday and felt very comfortable leaving him with her. He slept in their bed and seemed very content the entire time (especially since he gets anxious). So happy and will definitely be using her in the future!

Jousline did an amazing job caring for my French Bulldog, Jorden. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. Jorden can be a little particular, but Jousline was patient and handled everything professionally. I also appreciated the updates and communication, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Jousline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

Kim was wonderful with our Scouty! She sent lotsnof pictures, was able to tend to his medical needs, and kept him calm and happy while we were away. It was hard to leave him, as we know he gets anxious when we're away, but we had no worries once he was there. Wonderful experience! Thanks, Kim!

Cara is very caring and an excellent communicator. She has a neat, clean home & a very friendly small dog who readily accepted our 24lb cockapoo. When we returned to her home after the Meet & Greet, our pooch was happily whining & immediately laid on the floor & stretched wagging his tail. He was thoroughly happy when we retrieved him several days later, Cara even cleaned his ears when she saw he had ear discomfort, Highly recommend her.

About: I’m active duty military and my husband is retired military. We have two bengal cats and a yellow lab. I’ll take great care of your pet and am very accommodating for any special requests. I won’t show up feed, clean and leave. I will make sure they get their interaction and play, just like I would want for my high energy pets. *Doggy day care: rate based on a full day, please reach out for shorter time as Rover doesn’t allow to adjust per hour. If you have any questions, or special requests please let me know. Thank you. 😻 I work from home and can attend basically anytime at a reasonable distance. I’m a cat person but love dogs too. Overnight stays: accommodations under construction I am able to come to your house and attend your pets. Depending on the circumstance, I may or may not be able to stay overnight. Please inquire. Special pricing for military!!!!

I can board at my home anytime with proper consultation and care instructions. I have a 2 bedroom home with small fenced in yard. As well as a friendly dog and cat to keep your loved companion at ease.

Anthony was a great host for our pup! He was extremely flexible in terms of our drop off time, and understood that we were looking for someone to just take Lucy for a half day rather than a full over night so that we could enjoy a day at the beach. Lucy genuinely didn't want to leave, and jumped out of the car to go back up the steps to the front door - so a glowing review from our pup! We'll absolutely look to use Anthony again when we're on the island, and have already recommended him to our friends and family in the area. Thanks again for looking after our pup!

Nantikan was absolutely fantastic and our dogs Anna and Cooper had a great time during their stay. They were treated like they were part of the family right from the get go. We also really appreciated the daily photos and updates on how they were doing. I would absolutely recommend Nantikan if you need someone to love your dogs and treat them like family members.

Carol watched our Hansel for 3 days/2 nights. We were impressed from our initial meet & greet at Carol's neat, organized home. Her demeanor and experience indicated that she would provide excellent care for our pet. We received daily updates including photos that all was well, and Hansel was being his usual sweet self. At pick-up we found our boy happy, and ready to go home - we are confident he had an excellent experience with Carol. We are happy to have Carol as a resource for our future pet sitting needs.
