5. Jessie M.
“I was trying for 2 weeks to find a boarder for my dog Bandit, cause the hotel said we could bring dogs. So I scrambled and someone I knew said just go on Rover and you should be able to find one. I looked through all of them and met Jesse. I paid and booked. She was so nice before we even met at drop off. Then when I got there with Bandit her and her kids met us and Bandit was a little worried but Jesse made sure to text me and send photos everyday of how much fun he was having! Made me so happy! When we got Bandit back we picked him up and he was so happy to see us and I think he was ready to tackle me from excitement. She again said how good he did and everything, and we'll I can't say enough about the love and care they gave my dog. You can definitely a return visit from us! Thank you again!”
6. Madison S.
About: I absolutely LOVE every dog breed! I’ve cared for not only my family’s pets, but my friends as well. I have a tendency to spoil all of the fur babies that I come into contact with, by bringing them treats and toys! I’m Currently free anytime a sitter is needed on weekends and some weekdays. I’ll always try my hardest to fit you and your pets schedule! I have an open yard in a quiet neighborhood, I have one indoor cat who suffers with extreme anxiety. There’s plenty of room for walking and fun around the yard, as well as a nearby dog park! There’s never much traffic on my road, so if your pet is scared of loud vehicles, that shouldn’t be an issue.
7. Blythe & Evan S.
“Great job. She sent pics of our dog while in her care. Overall, we were very happy w her caring overnight for our 2 year old dog. Would recommend her.”
8. Janis S.
“Janis did a great job with Remi! I was a bit apprehensive about her two larger dogs with my 27 lb. boy, but she kept things in order and even sent me a video of him hanging out with another dog she was watching. It was comforting to know he was in good hands for the day.”
9. Amanda B.
“Amanda provided exceptional care for our high-maintenance dog, Brock. Safety was a priority, and her facility (aptly named "Vacation Paws") thoughtfully designed. Brock didn't want to leave! Highly recommend Vacation Paws for anyone seeking top-notch pet care.”
10. Jeanne H.
“Chance had a great time with Jeanne and her family. This was our second time using her and she did an amazing job. Love the video and picture updates and how excited Chance was to see her and her son. This makes dog sitting our dog so much easier and less stressful for us both.”
