Pet care experience

Safe stay, happy dogs, lots of love

With more than 125 five-star stays, we have plenty of experience providing dogs with a safe, comfortable and fun place to stay while their families are away! We offer in-home boarding with a daycare-style environment. Dogs spend their days rotating between outdoor time in our fully fenced, shaded yard and indoor time to cool down, rest and relax. They’ll have opportunities to play and socialize with the other dogs in our care while also getting plenty of downtime throughout the day. My husband and I are home much of the day, so we’re able to keep a close eye on our guests and maintain a consistent routine. We’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities and are comfortable following feeding schedules, administering medications and accommodating reasonable care needs. Because we typically care for multiple dogs at a time, our home is best suited for friendly, social dogs who are comfortable being around other dogs during their stay. Our goal is to provide a safe, well-managed and enjoyable stay for every dog in our care. We’re happy to send photo updates during your dog’s stay and can set up a meet and greet for new guests. We’d love to meet your pup! All owners will be provided a boarding questionnaire to fill out prior to their pups’ stay.

Cody seemed happy and less stressed when I picked him up from boarding. Emily and Sam communicated well and I could tell Cody felt comfortable around them. Will definitely be using them again!

It was very easy to connect with Emily and Sam. We arranged for a meet and greet before I left my two boys with them. Both dogs were very comfortable with them and their dog. The stay was super smooth. My boys came home happy and tired from all the fun they had playing with the other dogs.

We are return customers. Emily and Sam take amazing care of our 3 pups. They always come back happy. They keep in good communication and send frequent photo updates.

Prince had an amazing time with Emily and Sam! I’m somewhat of a helicopter mom when it comes to my boy because of his background and his age/health. We met before the stay and went over everything regarding Prince’s background. During his stay, they did their best to accommodate him and make him feel comfortable and at ease. They updated me with pictures and texted me as well. I couldn’t have asked for a better place for my boy to stay. I knew he was loved and cared for not just by Emily and Sam, but by their kids as well! I have already rebooked for next weekend!

Here’s a polished, genuine review you could post: This was my first experience using Rover, and Emily & Sam made the entire process easy and reassuring. They took the time to get to know Bear and understand his individual needs before his stay, which gave me a lot of confidence leaving him in their care. Throughout his stay, they sent regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. It was clear that Bear was well cared for and getting plenty of attention. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the level of care they provided. I would absolutely recommend Emily & Sam to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Five stars!

Emily and Sam are phenomenal. They have a great family setting and environment for our dog. They sent many pictures during our dog’s stay and I was able to see our dog was loved, well cared for, happy, and felt at home. I wouldn’t go anywhere else to have our dog boarded after having this wonderful experience.

Schedule

I’m a stay-at-home mom, and my husband works from home, so one or both of us is home much of the day. Together, we’ve created a comfortable and reliable in-home boarding environment where dogs can safely settle into the rhythm of our day while their families are away.
