“I booked with Rachel last minute and was greeted so warmly by her and her entire family which immediately put me at ease. Even though we didn’t do a meet and greet beforehand, I had a great vibe from the start and trusted them to handle the introductions with their dogs and other dogs in their care. And I’m so glad I did because everything turned out so well! Rachel sent daily updates, and Willow looked so happy and well cared. She got plenty of exercise, which I deeply appreciate because it helped her stay in her routine. They even went above and beyond by being super accommodating when I needed an extra day of care. To top it off, Rachel made homemade treats for Willow AND I to take home. 🥹 I truly have nothing but raving things to say and absolutely plan to book with them again. Thank you so much for treating Willow like part of the family!”
“Kris was AMAZING. She was so flexible, so knowledgeable and caring, and I could tell that she took the best care of Cookie! Cookie came home happily exhausted from playing at her home, and we will absolutely book a stay with Kris next time we’re in the area!!”
“I am very pleased with the care my two dogs receive from Paula One of the two dogs is not the easiest to get to know and look after, but Paula seems to have established a good relationship with him”
“We highly recommend Lisa as a pet sitter! She took care of our dog, Mr. Beckett while we were out of town. Not only did she provide excellent care for Mr. Beckett, but she also went above and beyond to ensure he felt loved and comfortable while we were away. We enjoyed the daily texts and pictures showing us he was safe and having a great time. Our nervousness about leaving Mr. Beckett for the first time was greatly reduced after we saw how well he was doing with her. Lisa would take him and her dog Ollie on daily adventures at the local parks. He enjoyed playing with Ollie and seemed very happy there. We will gladly use Lisa’s services in the future, she is trustworthy, loving and very in tune to our dog’s needs.”
“Brittany was so great to deal with, I'm so happy to have found her. Molly was comfortable with her and her dogs right away and I can tell she enjoyed her stay. Brittany sent pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. I would for sure recommend Brittany, great experience!”
“Shawn is truly a dog lover. He gave my dog attention and time like it was his own pet. I was away for two weeks and he sent me so many photos of my little guy having fun and playing. My dog Siya became best pals with Shawn’s beagle it felt sad to separate them when I had to pick Siya up to take him home. Thank you to Shawn and his family for taking such good care of my Siya!”
“Debra is the best! Max had a great time staying with her and playing with River. He came home happy and calm, but missing his buddy, River. Look forward to boarding Max with Debra again in the future.”
“LI and her family were so wonderful and caring . She sent us photos everyday of my dog Wilson living life to the fullest everyday while boarding at her place. We really appreciate everything you did for us!”
“Connie is a very kind caring caretaker for my sweet anxious older dog. She kept me updated with text and pictures on how my little guy was doing. I am so happy we found her!”
“Nikki stayed 2 days with Leslie and was doing great, since she never been borded. It looked like she did not want to go home with me. Leslie was taking such great care of Nikki and I can highly recommend her.”
“We just used Gabriella for the first time and were beyond impressed. Our dog had a amazing time, she sent updates for peace of mind. Very responsive to communication. Would use her again next time we need to go away with peace of mind.”
“So glad we found Chelsea on Rover. She was able to provide excellent care for our 10mon old pup that is fearful of new people. Most Kennels won't accept him. By the end of three days her calm and friendly demeanor rubbed off on him and they were friends. We love the photo update with happy puppy faces. We are grateful for the flexibility in time pick up and the last minute add on of our second dog.”
“Carol is simply one of the best in her care for animals and for our aging dog who needed extra attention. She treated Bailey like he was one of her own. We will definitely use her again.”
“Brianna and Jacob are both caring and diligent. Ebony was welcomed into their home along with the rest of her pups. I highly recommend using her service and will do so again of the opportunity arises.”
“Lenore and her doggie were both absolutely amazing to our boy. Every day Lenore sent us pictures and videos which put us at ease and made us smile. Our boy had an amazing time and was well taken care of. We will definitely be booking again in the near future.”
“Melissa, Ryan and family take very good care of my schnauzer. This is my second time leaving her there and they were delightful to deal with. They seemed to treat her as their own (and they do have 2 other dogs). My dog is young but doesn’t play with other dogs, and she tells other dogs exactly that. They got along very well. Would be happy to leave my dog there again.”
“Colin enjoyed another week with Ashley. It was an easy decision given our past experience of having Ashley look after him - a senior dog - multiple times. We once again got nightly check-in updates, lots of pictures, and Colin even came home with a special toy for his birthday! He is clearly well cared for and gets lots of attention when he stays with Ashley. We highly recommend her!”
“This is our first time dropping our dog off to stay somewhere overnight. Dolly put all our nervousness to rest. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. It was evident from the videos and pictures she sent that our dog was having a great time! She got lots of exercise and play time, and we would gladly trust Dolly with her again. Our dog was not sure she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up!”
“I had a great experience with Crystal! She was incredibly caring and attentive to my dog, providing regular updates on how she was doing. Communication was easy and smooth throughout. I felt at ease knowing my furry friend was in such good hands. Highly recommended!”
