“A savior. My dog was previously discriminated against at a kennel because of my dogs breed, and I was at a loss of what to do when entrusting my dogs care, and time was of the essence. Finding someone new was uncomfortable at best, but meeting Rich and his crew, and seeing how much my dog loved being there was a HUGE comfort. When I left Fin there, I did not worry, and that is saying something, as I was flying across the country, and leaving my dog in his care. I got very frequent updates and photos on how Fin was doing. We will be returning to Rich, without a doubt, in the future for my dogs care, and his doggy girlfriend, too. Run. Don’t walk, to have this man take care of your dogs.”


“1st time using Laura’s services and i must say she was amazing. She was very polite and professional. She took great care of my dog while i was gone and was accommodating. Her setup and grounds were great. She communicated each day with pics and updates. I will use her next time i need her services for sure… thanks again…”


“I always know Sassy is in great hands with Bruce. He gives updates with pictures throughout the day. She is always happy to be dropped off in his care. Will continue to book with Bruce!”


“It is truly difficult not to repeat my prior review about Nicole because she is amazing. Her warmth and compassion relieved all my anxiety of having Shaq stay with her for a week. My Shaq, little French Bulldog had royal treatment at her house. Besides that Nicole is a perfect match to care for Shaq her property is ideal for Shaq to run around in her backyard safely. It is completely fenced in and plenty of places to rest. Nicole also kept me updated everyday with pictures and texts. The world needs more people like Nicole and I am so grateful to have met her. As long as Nicole willing to watch and be available for Shaq then I will be at peace when I am away. Thank you again Nicole”


“Hazard took great care of my dog. She sent consistent photos and videos, and even sent 2 pet reports! Willa was happy and in great shape when I picked her up. I would definitely use Hazard again!”


“Matt, Brook, their kids, and Mr. Bo Jangles were amazing! Just a warm, friendly family that enjoys their pets. Their home is completely pet friendly with a fenced-in backyard that Blu and Bo Jangles exhausted themselves playing. I really cannot say enough kind things about Matthew and his family. Blu came home happily exhausted and crashed for the remainder of the day through the night. I look forward to Blue spending time with Bo again!”


“Kathryn took the BEST care of our two guys. Sent a ton of pictures, treated them like her own and I could tell they were super comfortable and loved. Would definitely book again!”


“Rusa and her family were so wonderful to our doggy. Our dog has had anxiety with previous boarders but she became so comfortable with Rusa and her family very quickly. Rusa also gave daily updates with photos, even cleaned our doggy’s eyes, and put booties on her paws when it snowed to protect her from the salt in streets. She was very communicative and trustworthy. Highly recommend.”

She’s friendly, professional, and clearly loves animals. Highly recommend!”


“Oscar stayed with Kristin for two weeks and he was well taken care of. This is the second time he’s been with Kristin so he was already familiar with everything. She also got Oscar a birthday toy and celebrated his birthday while I was away which I thought was very sweet. Very appreciative to have a family who Oscar feels comfortable with. Kristin was communicative throughout the long trip. Thanks again!”


“Michelle made my trip so much less stressful, knowing my Aura was being loved and cared for. Michelle sent daily updates with photos and was a pleasure to deal with. She is quick in responding to my inquiry and questions. Cody (her puppy) and Aura became best friends instantly. Will be using Michelle (and Cody) frequently. Thank you Michelle.”

“Gabriela has been very kind and loving to our Benji. He loves going to her house and feels very comfortable with her. Tomorrow will be the third time she helps us take care of Benji.”


“My experience with Dan on Rover exceeded all expectations and provided unparalleled peace of mind during our time away. From the moment I contacted Dan, their professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals were evident. First and foremost, communication was outstanding. Dan was prompt and responsive to all messages, providing updates and photos regularly, which greatly eased any worries we had about leaving Luna behind. Knowing that my pet was in caring hands and receiving the attention and affection they needed made my trip infinitely more enjoyable. Not only was the communication top-notch, it was evident that they took the time to understand Luna's needs and preferences, ensuring they felt comfortable and loved throughout their stay. Additionally, the environment provided by Dan was safe, clean, and welcoming, creating a home-away-from-home for Luna. I appreciated the accommodations made to accommodate my pet's routine and preferences, further demonstrating Dan's dedication to providing the best possible experience. We will undoubtedly be entrusting them with Luna's care while we are away in the future. Thanks Dan!”


“Zarah was great — I needed a dog sitter very last-minute, and she responded with her availability immediately. Her communication was great, she sent several pictures of Toby throughout the night, and he seemed happy when I picked him up. I would not hesitate to recommend Zarah to anyone else!”


About: Salutations, My name is Saori and I have 15+ years caring for animals. Not only have I owned and cared for everything from rodents to livestock, but all ages of pets as well.

Needless to say I love animals and able to provide your dog (or cat) with the best of care. I work from home at my farm. I rarely vacation so I am home all day and able to have pets in and around my home at all times. I have a farm with two dog friendly dogs. My farms has fenced and gated areas, but I normally let my dogs play outside all day in nice weather. If your dog has good at recall they'll be allowed off leash, but if not they'll have a scheduled day that will include swimming, hikes and lots of pets. If you have a pet that is senior and prefers naps over playtime. We have a specially made dog room with a TV and air conditioning.
