“Wow… I can’t say enough good things about our experience. We felt so at peace with the frequent updates and photos of our dog Lupo. The communication was excellent- lupo was picked up today happier than when we left and fit right in with taco and Ragnar. Thank you both for treating Lupo like one of your own. I would highly recommend their care to all my family and friends.”


“Another amazing stay. This time it was an overnight and it seemed Gino had a great time when I picked him up. He seemed very happy and now that he’s home he’s resting comfortably. So happy that Mariia is taking such good care of him!”


“Rose has been amazing with our dog Jamie! She is extremely personable, and very accommodating to our needs. She is very good with animals, and really knew how to introduce Jamie to the other boarders and help him assimilate to the environment. This was our first time leaving Jamie in a home other than our own, and we weren’t sure how that was going to play out- and Rose really made us feel comfortable that our baby was in good hands ❤️ Highly recommend!!!”


“I’m so thankful I found Kristen! She is such a kind and caring person and instantly my pup took to her without hesitation! She answered any questions I had and gave reassurance. We were gone for a few days and missing our dog so receiving photos and seeing her happy was a great feeling/experience! Highly recommend!”


“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my dog! From the moment we met, I could tell Jia had a natural connection with animals. Jia was warm, responsible, and clearly experienced. My dog instantly felt comfortable, and I felt completely at ease leaving him in such capable hands. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates, pictures, and even a few videos that showed how happy and relaxed my dog was. It was clear he was being well-loved and cared for. The sitter went above and beyond with walks, playtime, and making sure he stuck to his routine. I came home to a calm, happy pup—and a clean house! I wholeheartedly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for reliable and loving care for their pet. I will absolutely be booking with them again. Thank you for treating my dog like your own!”


“First time using Rover and Jessica was great. Jessica would send pictures and video updates which was nice to see my dog having fun while on vacation would definitely use Jessica again.”


“Melissa and Dan were great with our 8 month old golden retriever, Ginger. We were completely comfortable after our meeting. Ginger seemed happy and well taken care of. We received daily updates with photos and videos. I plan to leave our dog in their capable hands again and I would recommend them to anyone who wants quality care for their pet.”


“Melissa and Robert provided excellent care during our vacation. They ensured we felt confident leaving Molly with them by arranging a meet-and-greet with their own dogs, which allowed for a smooth introduction. They sent us photos and videos of Molly during our trip, which we appreciated. I highly recommend Melissa and Robert for anyone seeking dependable and attentive pet care services.”


“Excellent, excellent experience. Joe and Bonnie are warm, welcoming true dog-lovers who lavished affection on my Sona and made her feel right at home. I could go on and on about what an exceptional experience this was, but I selfishly want to keep them all to myself! ; )”



“We just returned from vacation and couldn’t be happier with the care our Weimaraner received while we were away! As any Weim owner knows, they are full of energy, curiosity, and need lots of outdoor time and Junior and his wife understood and embraced that. From the very beginning, they were warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with boarding. They made sure our pup had plenty of structured walks and outdoor breaks to keep him active and engaged. We received updates with photos of him happily trotting outside, sniffing around, or just basking in the sun. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he wasn’t just cooped up indoors but actually enjoying his own little vacation! When we picked him up, he was happy and healthy in the best way. It’s clear he was well cared for and got all the movement and love he needed while we were gone.”


“Chris and Joe welcomed Jameson so warmly and with lots of love. He got a walk every day and played outside, and even got to meet some grandkids. I couldn't be happier to have found Chris. I know Jameson felt loved on!”


“Archie spent 6 days with Angela & Michael. Angela is very good with updates and pictures…Archie always enjoys his visits and I it’s nice to know he’s well taken care of. Will use again”



“Kathleen was more than accommodating to my dog axel. She took us on as a last minute booking and communicated with us for axels entire stay! She sent tons of pictures and axel genuinely looked so happy to be there. He loved running in her big back yard and going on nice walks with her everyday. She had tons of toys for him to play with as well. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be using her again! We are so glad we found her.”


“Irina was wonderful with Lilly, my needy little dachshund ! She was so attentive to her needs and I knew she was in the best care. She spent quality time with her and sent me updates which exceeded my expectations. She is very responsible and loving and I have already booked her again!”


“Meg was very easy to work with. I brought Minnie to the meet and greet and she seemed very comfortable in the house. Minnie stayed with Meg and her family for a week. She was very happy. They treated her like a member of the family. I highly recommend Meg.”


“Great communication, very pleasant and best of all took great care of our dog. He had a great time and we were kept up to date with how he was doing and what he was up to. Would happily book with them again!!”



“Chantel and Neil (and their kids!) were so great with our dog when they watched her for a week. We heard from them everyday with pictures or videos and it was great to watch her play with their dog or just laze around with their family. It was important to us that our dog being a comfortable environment that felt as much like home as it could, and Chantel and Neil certainly provided that. We will certainly rebook in the future.”


About: I’ve had 10 rescue dogs throughout my life, all varying breeds and behaviors. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter for the past three years and fostered two cats and two dogs from there. I’m lucky to have two adopted animals, Candy (cat) and Gigi (dog), living with me now. Many more animals to come! I work a full time Monday to Friday 8am-5pm job, but I am available on the weekends or some late weekdays. I have a hybrid job, so if you need me during a weekday, then just give me a heads up and I’ll move my schedule around. In my own home, I allow my dog to roam free and play outside (fenced outdoor space). With other people’s dogs and spaces, I will listen to whatever the owner feels is best for their dog and follow their lead.

Couldn’t be happier or more grateful to have found Melissa and Dan to host our dog Sadie. They were so accommodating to all her needs and likes, she was truly made to feel at home. She was so relaxed and happy, it was lovely to receive regular updates and photos of her during her stay. There is real peace of mind knowing that I’m leaving Sadie in such capable and caring hands, highly recommend!

Irina took wonderful care of our Goldendoodle for a week while our family was away. She was in constant communication with us (at our request)—sharing tons of cute pictures and videos!! Irina made sure to follow our dog’s diet and took her on tons of fun excursions! It was like a vacation for her too! Peace of mind is everything while traveling and that’s exactly what Irina gave us!

Michael and Angela took good care of our Pet Shih Tzu while we were away for 3 days for the July 4th Weekend. They took him for walks, provided him food and snacks as per his schedule. Kept us updated on him everyday with text and pictures. Happy with boarding our dog with Michael & Angela. I would recommend them and hope to use them again in the future.

I cannot say enough great things about Luana and her care for Captain. From the minute I met Luana, I knew Captain would be well taken care of. The pictures that I received while Captain was being taken care of were amazing. He received so much love that I could really enjoy my time away. Already looking forward to future getaways so Captain can have a little vacation with Luana and her family too.
