Boarding • Mar 14, 2023

David and his wife were very easy to deal with from the meet and greet to the day Brady came home after a 6-day stay with them. My pup was a happy boy; and I loved the pix and update I received every day. Their home is so very dog-friendly---no crating, pups sleeping on the couch and jumping on their bed to say good morning, etc. They were wonderful to Brady, and I would highly recommend them if/when you are in a situation where you have to find a caretaker for your 4-legged child.

Boarding • Oct 27, 2022

We recently needed to board our dog on short notice and found David on Rover. David and his wife Beth took great care of our dog. It was a great relief to find such loving and caring people to care for her. They sent us texts and pictures of her playing and having a great time. She was given lots of love and I could tell in the pictures she was having a great time. I would definitely recommend them and will be using them again.

I took my dog to David for the first time and left her for 11 nights. David and his wife kept me informed of my dog's health,activities and ability to socialize with other dogs via texts and photos. That gave me peace of mind. This home is a cage free setting and in every picture,my dog was "at home" sitting on furniture, laps or cuddled with a new fur-friend. When I returned home, my dog was happy and seemed to be unconcerned if I took her home or left her.! The yard is fenced and secure and the house is safe for the pups. I feel like I also made a friend when I met David. I happily reccommend this dog sitter.

Our two pups got along well with David’s four. They were happy to return for their second stay.

Boarding • Feb 13, 2022

This was our first boarding experience and David made it easy and positive. Our dog turned out to be a holy terror instead of a terrier. He was professional and found the perfect solutions to calm her nerves and seperation anxiety. I was embarrassed that my dog behaved so poorly but he made it a safe environment for her unruliness and returned a healthy happy dog.
