“Thank you Roselie and Kevin for keeping Reeko, again! You always provide excellent and prompt communication, and send pictures and updates! You guys are great people, we appreciate you.”


“Steffani took such great care of our puppy, Dusty this past weekend!! We had to find a sitter for him last minute while on vacation because our rental property was not very dog friendly. Steffani was actually watching my sister-in-law’s puppy at the same time so Steffani made a last minute exception for us and agreed to take Dusty the same day!! I’m so grateful for her!! She helped potty train him, gave him lots of loves and play time, and even let dusty sleep with her at night. Her dogs are such wonderful hosts as well and I’m so glad that our puppy had this opportunity to socialize with such friendly dogs. She was extremely communicative, and sent lots of updates, pictures, and videos. She is such a kind and trustworthy human being and we will definitely book a stay with her for Dusty next time we are in town ❤️❤️🙏🙏”


“Mary took great care of Duke! She was lovely to speak with, sent adorable updates, and asked thoughtful questions about his care. Duke warmed up to her immediately and had a great time at her home. We would love for Mary to watch Duke again!”


“As always, we love sending Monty to Sarah and Brendan. Monty feels right at home and it makes us feel so good that he’s in a loving home, playing lots but in a more relaxing environment!”


“Amazing first experience boarding for my puppy! I am extremely grateful for all the updates, videos and photos! Sage (my puppy) absolutely loved making new friends with your dogs. Anastasia was extremely thoughtful, trustworthy and patient. Thank you!”


“Jason was great. I had to change my plans a couple times and he worked with me. Gave me updates on how the dog was doing. He sent me pics several times and put me at ease. Great experience!”


“Lucinda, is a kind spirit and it shows in your love of animals. To be able to leave our dogs is such good care, really put my mind at ease. Thanks you for all your help and understanding.”


“Peaches was an amazing dogsitter! We were out of the country and were so excited to get daily photos and videos of our dog! She truly took in Louie as one of her own, and I will 100% be using her again!”


“Thank you Veronica for the overnight stay for Darby while I was in town for a wedding. You were very welcoming to Darby, and as a pet parent, that made me feel very comfortable that I knew that Darby would be well taken care of. Also, thank you for the pics and video, it was great to see Darby having fun and settling into your home. I’m glad that Darby and your dog Roxie got along so well.”


“Passionate and kind boarder!! Sheran took great care of our Dunkin, making sure he didn't feel any separation anxiety, as this was his first time away from home. Dunkin is still a puppy and is still learning, so Sheran gave us great tips on how to help Dunkin control his energy. Dunkin jad a great connection with Sheran and Sheran was very attentive to Dunkin's needs. He sent videos during the stay, which also eased our minds. We would love to use Sheran again, he is truly passionate about what he does and he does it so well!”


“Kaitlynn was great! I loved that she updated me on how my puppy was doing, i was a little nervous because she's anxious around people but wants attention at the same time. Will definitely be booking again!”


“Sam was wonderful! Our Lyla and Lincoln were incorporated right into her family. Communications was excellent. We got photos every day. Lyla and Lincoln were content driving home and adjusted without issue back into home life. Highly recommend!”


“This was our first time leaving Oreo. After our meet and greet my husband and granddaughter felt really comfortable with leaving him with Lydia and Kieran. While we were gone they send pictures of him talking walks. They made us feel really comfortable and we were able to relax a little on our trip to California to lay my brother to rest. We hope that Oreo has lifetime friends that will be there for us in the future and hopefully for more enjoyable trips.”


“We couldn't be happier with Alyssa, and our dogs loved their weekend stay with her! We got updates about both how they were behaving and the activities they did. We could tell she was making efforts to keep the two of them entertained and stimulated, as they came back exhausted. We also got videos and pictures that were very entertaining and reassuring while we were gone. Our dogs can be difficult and have a few things to keep track of, but this did not seem to bother Alyssa and she exceeded our expectations! We will be repeating this experience and would recommend her to our family and friends.”


“Cynthia was amazing! I had no worries while Remi was with her while I was traveling abroad. It was my first time being so far away from Remi. I received pictures and updates frequently!!!”



“After touring a local pet resort chain and seeing the prison-like conditions, my husband and I just knew we needed to find an actual caregiver. New to Ohio, I stumbled upon Rover and found Irina to help us out. We were apprehensive about leaving our pup at first in a new environment, but Irina and her daughter were fabulous. I got reassuring texts and photos throughout our stay that let us know Rizzo was having a grand time without us and that she was fitting in and meeting new buddies. Now we know we can go on vacations again!”
