Our dog Frida just finished her second boarding visit and loved her time with Brit and her family. It’s truly a home away from home for her. We got daily photos and updates. We have an older dog with diabetes and Brit was so helpful in being able to assist her in her feeding/medication requirements. Frida adores Brit, her family, and their dog and we look forward to using their services again moving forward!

We were very nervous to leave our Zeus with someone we haven’t met before but Cassandra made us feel so at ease in her beautiful home. Zeus did so great and it was great that Cassandra sent updates and picture and video of our boy. Highly recommend!

Bruce is amazing. This is our second time having turbo stay over. He sent us pictures and updates multiple times throughout the day. When our trip got extended it was no problem for turbo to stay an extra night. We feel the most comfortable when Bruce watches our pup than anyone else around. We can’t say enough positive things about Bruce and the care he gave turbo. We know in the future if we are going away we will only book with Bruce. Thank you again!

I was really nervous about leaving my dog (Amethyst) alone for almost a week during my kids' spring break. I knew I didn't want to leave her in a kennel where she would spend hours alone in a crate and I did not think she would do well being around a lot of dogs at once. I was incredibly lucky to find Mark through Rover. Mark and his wife were very friendly during our initial meet and greet with Amethyst and their two well-behaved dogs. I could tell that they love their pets and I was comfortable with them from the start. I scheduled a couple of doggy daycare days to help Amethyst acclimate and during those times, Mark was patient and responsive with communications. By the time our trip came, I was very comfortable leaving Amethyst with Mark and his family. The communication was great and he sent a few pictures of her enjoying her time with them. I came home to a happy and healthy dog who had clearly been well-cared for. I highly recommend Mark and his family to anyone looking for pet-sitting services, and I would leave Amethyst with them again without hesitation.

Our dog Finn had another great stay with Mariana. This is the 2nd time he’s stayed with her and he really enjoys himself playing with her dogs. No problems with the booking process. Mariana is great at sending updates, pictures and video’s duriing the stay. Would highly recommend her and hope to book again in the future.

Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!

Karina and Teresa were absolutely amazing with Evee! From start to finish, they took such great care of her and made me feel completely at ease. They sent tons of photos and videos, which I really appreciated; it was so clear how happy, comfortable, and well-loved Evee was the entire time. 🥰🥰 Evee came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. You can tell they genuinely love what they do and treat your pet like their own. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would 100% trust them with Evee again. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience boarding our dog! Kristen allowed us to do a meet and greet with her cat before booking, to ensure that her home was a good fit. Despite being Christmas week, Kristen was super accommodating and made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with her. She was great at communicating and took amazing care of Raya! ❤️
