Mesgana was, by far, the best dog-sitter we've had. With thorough updates every night and plenty of pictures, we always knew how Frankie was doing. What really elevated the stay was Mesgana's personal attention. Frankie is an elderly dog, and prone to dementia; she gets confused and anxious in new environments. Mesgana proactively found ways to make Frankie feel more comfortable, and even had a few suggestions for us when we picked her up. Hands down, you cannot find a better person to care for your pup. Thanks again, Mesgana!

Susanna and family were amazing with my almost 3 year old Cocker Spaniel. They knew exactly what to do, the right amount of exercise, naps/chill time and play. He has never been so content and relaxed after coming home from being away! Highly recommend!

Lisa was quick to respond and took care of my dog Gia like it was one of her own! She’s very flexible and reliable, and I felt very reassured having her watch my dog while I was out of town. I highly recommend her services.

Cheddar had a blast with Nancy. She was kind, attentive, and oriented to Cheddar’s needs. She took him on many walks and lots of adventures! He was thoroughly loved and cared for by her during his stay. She is very knowledgeable and has lots of energy to provide your pet with an excellent home away from home. She was super responsive and sent many updates about how Cheddar was doing. We are lucky to have found her! 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We are SO happy to have met Stephanie and to care for our pup Walter. Stephanie is extremely passionate about animals and dogs and I love how proactive she was in sending pictures from play time, lounging, dog parks and everything to make our pup the happiest ever. She is very communicative! Thank you!!!

Our dog Riggs had the absolute BEST time with Christopher and crew. I feel grateful to have found such a loving and reliable home to leave our pup with and plan to book with them again and again. Christopher and Aiste were great communicators with quick responses and daily updates and photos, they even went above and beyond to help me when my husband broke his ankle during our trip. Riggs can wait to play again. Thank You!

Emily and Mark Were phenomenal with our pup. What was meant to be a routine trip to the East Coast for the holidays became a stressful delayed vacation thanks to Covid… And so Mark and Emily had to continue being patient as our plans and dates changed. But…Once we finally left…Mark and Emily communicated very well with us both via pictures and emails telling us about our pups day. Despite the rainy days that they had… They were able to keep the dogs entertained and well walked! When we picked up our dog biscoff he was naturally happy to see us… But we could tell that he was happy and well cared for. Emily left some sweet photographs that she had taken during his stay with a kind a message which was a beautiful goodbye token. Whenever I have met someone from Rover for a meet and greet you can always tell who the true dog lovers are and Emily and Mark are just that! Thank you for taking care of fur baby! We hope to use you again in the near future!!!

Anna provided a wonderful boarding experience for our 6-month old puppy! All the pictures, video and feedback were great and informative. I think our puppy enjoyed every moment and also got to enjoy her company and her dog too. We are very appreciative and will certainly book again with Anna!

Kellie & Nathan are very welcoming & warm. After our first meeting with the whole family including their lab, Mr. Furley we felt confident they would take good care of our energetic border collie mix. Kellie was great at texting photos while we were away. As a result we were able to relax & enjoy our vacation. We highly recommend them as we will definitely use their services in the future.

My first time using this service was great, better than I expected. My dog has been really anxious with new people and enviornments and I was worried how he was going to do while I was out of town. Turns out Erin had the patience with him and he settled in very quickly to her loving family. I received daily updates with photos that really helped put my mind at ease. Like I said, really good experience compared to the kenals I was using previously.

Randi took great care of our two little chihuahua mixes. One is elderly and the other has pretty serious anxiety, and Randi managed to give them a relaxing, pleasant retreat. She’s got a great vibe and obviously knows dogs well. 5/5.

Theo had so much fun with Sophia, her husband and kids. I know this because when I came to pick him up he didn’t want to leave. The kids didn’t want him to leave and I could feel the energy of love and connection so strongly. Theo cants wait to come back for another visit :) thank you so much for being such a loving and caring home for my furbaby
