“John & Ryan took wonderful care of our dog, Freddie. He was the perfect playmate for Bruno. John & Ryan gave us consistent updates and pictures so we were rest assured he was in great hands! We will book again.”


“Tilly stayed with Adam for a whole week and truly appreciated the services! I had some moving start and end times due to a last minute change to flying and Adam was very accommodating. She is happy to see him and makes me enjoy my trip much more knowing she seems very content and happy while I am away!”


“Corey & Rob took such great care of Brixton while we were out of the country! We were nervous leaving Brixton with anyone because he’s epileptic and requires daily meds at specific times but they went above and beyond to understand his condition and ask questions. Their attention to detail and genuine care gave us so much peace of mind.”


“Stefany and Cameron were great! Our dog seemed to have an amazing time. There were plenty of updates, pictures and videos, and they took care of everything that was needed!”


“We cannot recommend Nina enough! She and her partner are so amazing with our dog Apollo. They send so many photo and text updates so we know he’s always well taken care of. Our pup literally RUNS down the street to greet them when we go to drop him off—how rare is that? They’re so amazing and we will definitely be reaching out to them again in the future!”


“Barbara is AMAZING!! She is everything you could hope for in a person to entrust the care of your pet. She is extremely reliable, and takes her job very seriously, and does it with a very warm disposition. Our dog Lanie is older, and we wanted someone who would understand her needs. Barbara really delivered. She's like a dog whisperer. We received updates and pictures everyday, and Lanie was happy, well rested and given EXCELLENT care while staying with Barbara and Chewy. Her dog Chewy has a great personality too, and was a lovely companion for our dog to hang out with. She covered every aspect of Lanie's care with us beforehand in detail, and I have never been more at ease with leaving Lanie with her. We've had a lot of boarding experiences over the years, and Barbara is hands down, simply the BEST! We have already booked with her for another upcoming stay, and I am so happy to have found someone who is so dedicated and genuine. If I could give her 10 stars instead of 5, I would!”



“I am so happy I stumbled upon Rover and found Iwona. My while family and I were seriously concerned leaving behind our 13 years old lab Binky due to her age and she gets super sad when we are not around. However, Iwona took care of my pup so well, including daily medication for incontinence and outdoor activities. Having a fenced yard is a big plus since my Binky loves exploring outside. She also updated me on how Binkyvwas doing with a ton of pictures. It's such a pleasure picking up happy and healthy pup. We will definitely book Iwona again.”


“Christian took good care of my dog while i went away on a 4day trip. He sent me pictures and updates. I appreciate the communication and good service he provides.”


“Rob again is an outstanding sitter. He goes above and beyond. Plays with Nova daily and gives her so much love and care. I’m in a situation where is travel and he has taken on keeping her as I find her a new forever home.”


“Dayana never disappoints. You can really tell how much she loves and cares for dogs. This is the second time I booked with her for my dogs to stay for a couple of days. She provided me with pictures and videos and made sure I felt comfortable with their stay. They came home happy, fed and very tired from all of the playing. I will definitely keep booking my babies with her whenever I have to be out of town. Thank you Dayana!”


“Tomas was extremely good with my 1 year pit mix draco , i had to get a sitter last minute and tomas made me feel comfortable leaving my dog there for the first time ! draco was around golden retrievers other pits and bernedoddles , he immediately went in and was so excited no sign of fear with the dogs and no dogs stressing him out which was a great sign and a huge relief because he has anxiety and gets timid but not over there , he had some accidents but tomas was so kind about it and cleaning after him . at pick up my pup was so excited to see me but also sad to leave his new friends he cried the whole way home :( i will continue to book with tomas for the future they made my pup feel comfortable and safe + i got videos of him and text about his behavior!”


“Lesslie did an amazing job with my puppy! She sent tons of videos of him having a great time with the other dogs she was sitting for. Would absolutely book again!”


“Leslie and her family were awesome! We are new to the area and needed to book a sitter on last-minute notice. We even needed to extend our stay, and Leslie came through. She was consistent with updates, sending pictures and videos. We know Madeline enjoyed herself and was well taken care of. We will not hesitate to rebook. Thanks! :)”


“Karen was fantastic with our sweet but quirky cattle dog, Rosie! We were able to enjoy a 10-day vacation because we knew she was well taken care of. We received photos and updates each day and Rosie seemed reluctant to leave her new friend. Highly recommended Karen!”


“We felt very comfortable leaving our pup with Katherine and her beautiful family! Oliver seemed quite at home there. We typically have angst when leaving Oliver with the big doggie daycare chains, especially for several days. A home environment where there are people who care, interact, play and walk our pup puts us much more at ease.”
