“Richard T boarded our dog Callie for a week while we were on vacation. He set up a meet and greet at his home to get her comfortable being there before our trip. Each day, he sent us pictures of her playing or resting to keep us updated and set our minds at ease. Our dog is never crated, so we would not send her to a typical kennel. Richard boards the dogs in his home, so she had access to the house and yard, just like she would at our home. Callie had a great time with the other dogs so we will definitely use Richard T’s services again!”
“Great as always! Milo always has such a great time when he stays with Kathleen. Kathleen always takes amazing care of him and allows me to be away from Milo with no worries. Milo will definitely be back!”
“Victoria was absolutely wonderful to work with. She sent pictures and videos of our dog and my son's cat every day during our vacation. Both were happy to see us when we picked them up and it was obvious they were well cared for. VIctoria was immensely patient with our Irish Setter puppy who has lots of energy and my son's cat who is a recluse. 100% will be using her again for out of town trips!”
“Amy was amazing! I have a senior Shiba Inu who is 17 and Amy was so good with him! She was very patient with him and offered updates and pictures throughout the day. This was my first time having someone dog sit for me and she eased all of my anxiety about it. I would highly recommend her!”
“Christine was so great w/ floof. He can be an anxious boy and she went out of her way to do lots of small things to make his stay as stress free as possible, working to accommodate him and what he needed to feel at home. She sent regular updates and pics, he came home a happy boy :) We'd love to use her again for future vacations”
“Nelia is top notch! I am one of her repeat customers and she is my go to with Rover! See one of my previous lengthy reviews with all the details.”
“Tevon was wonderful! He accommodated our last minute need for boarding and was flexible with our pickup time when we were running late getting back in town. He kept us updated and took great care of Pretzel!”
“Sebastian was absolutely perfect with my dog Chip. Chip is a old (12yo) chihuahua so he needs extra love and care and Sebastian and his wife did just that! He sent pictures every day and made everything easy for me. It was as if my dog was on vacation too! Highly recommend and will use Sebastian again 😊”
“Denise and her husband did such a wonderful job with my dog, Parker. It was my first time using their services and they made me feel comfortable and worry free while I was away with frequent updates and photos. Highly recommend! Hope to be able to book with them again soon. Thank you :)”
“This is the second time we have booked with Audrey! And she is phenomenal! She sent daily photos and treated Winston like her own. I loved to see photos of Winston and Blush playing together! Super excited for their next play date! Audrey will be a go to sitter from now on!”
“Kirsten took great care of my dog while I was away for a day trip. I could tell that my dog had a great time with her and got lots of love, attention and exercise. I would highly recommend Kirsten’s services for your pet care needs.”
“I have no words to describe how grateful I am with Sarah. She made Kobe’s first stay amazing. Since I met her I found a very loving and caring person and I felt really secure to leave my dog Kobe with her and her wonderful dogs. She was in touch the whole time sending me pictures and videos. I won’t hesitate to leave Kobe again with her!! Thank you so much again Sarah!! 😍”
About: I love dogs and have experience with many dogs of varying ages and breeds. I grew up with golden retrievers, a dachshund, and a variety of rescue dogs and cats. For the past 12 years I had a Great Dane, Harry, who sadly passed away recently. I raised Harry from the time he was 8 weeks old so we went through the puppy stages, the teenage years, and the golden senior years. So, I’ve seen it all as a dog mom chewing, behavior issues, allergic reactions, accidents, illnesses, etc. I’m well equipped to take care of your pet and handle any challenge that may come up. I’ll care for your pet like he/she is a member of my own family- just like I did with Harry for 12 years. We will go for walks, have playtime, snuggle on the couch- whatever they’re into! I’m very organized, timely, and resourceful. I will work with your schedule and follow any instructions you have for your pet, no matter how specific. I do not have any pets of my own right now and have a fenced in yard. I work from home so can spend a lot of time with your pet at my home or drop in at your home as-needed. I work full-time from home so have flexibility with pet care needs throughout the day. I can provide bathroom breaks and feedings as needed throughout the day as well as check-ins. I have a fenced in yard (front and back) for the dog to use, but also have plenty of walkable areas around my house. I have no pets of my own right now. At a client’s home I will follow their instructions for yard usage, walks, etc.
“Karen was a gem and so easy to work with! She took good care of Jax and even with his sparkling personality…did not have anything bad to say about his time with her”
“Raeann was amazing with my dog. She is a true animal lover, who made my dog feel very loved. She was super accommodating with dates and with pick up and drop off arrangements. She ensured that my dog was comfortable. She asked me many questions just to make my doggo feel at ease and happy at her place, which I appreciated. She sent me picture updates and communicated with me throughout my dog's stay. I could not have asked for a better person.”
“I am always a little nervous when I leave my pup with someone new but AJ was great with Tater. He put me at ease knowing that my pup was being taken care of so well. He gave my puppy full range of his home and gave him the necessary play/exercise. I would recommend AJ.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Breanna doggie sitting our senior girl over the weekend. Breanna’s communication throughout the process was amazing proving updates and photos. Her experience with dogs truly showed. We had no worries! Highly recommend Breanna. Our girl misses her already.”

Mount Washington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Cindy is every dog owner's dream! She took such good care of our dog her came back looking much better than we left him. Her has too much fur and we didn't have time to get him groomed beforehand. She went well above and brushed him throughly before we returned. She stayed in touch and was great at communication throughout the whole booking process. I honestly think my dog already misses her 🥲
Sara was an amazing host! Great with all types of dogs and made Lola feel right at home. So much play/backyard time, many photo updates, and Grim was the perfect weekend buddy for her. Will definitely treat Lola to a perfect weekend getaway w Sara and Grim again!
Christine was honestly so amazing. From the beginning she was soo helpful! I have never booked through here before or knew how this whole process went, and Christine made this process just so easy. I was so skeptical leaving my old lady while I went out of town due to her having anxiety issues from her shelter stay before I adopted her. But Christine made this a perfect stay for her! I got daily photos and updates and my Bella Bean even made a friend!!! (Christine’s kitten). This was just a lovely experience! And since my Bella Bean is so comfortable with Christine now, I will absolutely be booking again!! Thank you so much Christine!! 💗💗
Brittany is such an incredible haven for our dog while we’re out of town! She is incredibly in tune with animals’ needs, asking questions about potential quirks and triggers which make us feel confident he is in expert hands. We always know our buddy is safe and loved with her.
