“Haley did a wonderful job boarding our dog, Rue. She sent plenty of pictures and Rue seemed to have a very good time interacting with Haley's dogs. She was respectful of our time and was good with communication.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy with my experience. My dog came home very happy and I know he was well cared for with Alyssa. I will definitely use her again!”
“Christal was quick to respond and very communicative while my pup was with her family! Lots of love and cuddles were given and my pup came home tired and happy! I hope we can board with Christal again!”
“Dana is amazing. Leaving my Maxwell with her was a great decision. She provided me with lots of updates the entire stay including plenty of pictures. Maxwell is a pretty timid dog but she was able to get him to open up and even socialize with her dog Bailey. She’s such a warm person, it felt like i was leaving him with a family member.”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Mr Daniel. He sends updates all day, everyday. First time using Rover and he was the man. Thank you for looking after Piper, she is a needy/talkative dog and you had no complaints. I look forward to using Mr Daniel again to watch Piper!”
“Elizabeth took care of mango as if she was her own pet! She sent pictures and videos multiple times a day which was great. I would recommend her services to anyone looking in the area and would book with her again! Thanks!”
“Cassian felt right at home at Katherine‘s house… They were very accommodating. They have a nice big backyard and were very loving towards my pup. I highly recommend them. 🐶”
“Tina is amazing! I couldn't have imagined a better experience. I have a 14-year-old dog who doesn’t think he’s a dog, and the idea of someone else caring for him was difficult to consider since he's so set in his ways and routines. But Tina went above and beyond to make the process seamless. She genuinely cares and takes the time to learn everything about the animals she cares for. I’m beyond grateful for the wonderful care she provided for Albie.”
“Tucker had the best weekend with Carolina and her sweet girls! They were so kind and welcoming, and the video updates throughout his time there were wonderful. She was wonderful!”
“Our senior dog, Watson, has stayed with Molly and her family twice now and we LOVE working with her! She's a fantastic and responsive communicator who sends lots of pictures. Pick-up and drop-off have always been a breeze (even when we had a flight delay that set us a bit off schedule!). They do a great job giving Watson his medicine (daily pills and eye ointment). Most importantly, it is clear to us that Watson loves visiting Molly & her family! He always comes home to us happy and healthy, if a little tired from all the excitement. :-)”
“Wrigley had a great visit. I am always nervous leaving him but my apprehension was quickly put to rest. We received several pictures and updates and we know he had a great time. Ilanna and her family made him feel like a member of the family. Wrigley is looking forward to his next visit.”
“Norman had an amazing time here and was treating great. I don’t think he was even sad I was gone! Would recommend, very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and Norman had a blast.”
“Shalyn is caring and good in updating us about Max. She accommodated our requests and thanks for making Max feel at home. She is very good and I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Roxie loves staying with Judith, but especially getting to play with Catcher & Cherokee! We feel totally trusting of the care that she gets while staying with Judith, her husband and plan on let Roxie go stay and play in the future. Highly recommend "Judith P"!”
“Jayden was absolutely amazing. I really needed the help as I was moving into my new home in Charlotte and she responded on very short notice to my same day request, was flexible and extremely welcoming. We really enjoyed meeting her son Weston, as well as their dog Nova. Our dogs played very well together. We were also grateful to Jayden’s boyfriend for his help the next day. We look forward to having them spend more time with Rainy.”
“Tawni took very good care of our Daisy and kept in touch throughout her stay. I felt comfortable and confident that our Daisy was in good hands and appreciative Tawni being available each time I reached out to her”
“Jacques was well taken care of while we were out of town. Dominique sent a few photos along with a quick daily update. I highly recommend Dominique and Peter for dog sitter care. We hope to use their sitter services again if they are available.”
“This was our first time leaving our two small dogs with Bozena and she was amazing! Very attentive, asked lots of questions, and sent lots of pictures and updates during. Our dogs seemed to enjoy all of the attention and cuddles! Will book her again in the future!”
“Ravenna did an amazing job taking care of my sweet girl while I was out of town for several days and kept me updated regularly with photos and status reports. Would highly recommend her pet care services to anyone!”
