“This was the first time that Onyx has stayed away from home. Alexis and Daniel really put my mind at ease. They sent updates and videos letting me know firsthand that my fur baby was doing good. I highly recommend them and will book them again should I ever need to leave my dog.”


“Karen made such a great home away from home for our 2 collies that they did not want to leave when we picked them up! It was the first time leaving them in years and we are so happy to have found Karen because we knew they were getting the best 1 on 1 care and attention! She sent us updates and pictures while we were away and they got to go on a lot of walks which made us so happy to hear! 1 of our collies has lots of health issues but this was not a problem for Karen while we were on vacation. Thank you again!!”


“Caillynn was great! She sent plenty of updates and pictures during his stay, and he was returned in great shape. The big yard and fence meant that I'm sure my dog had a great time during his weekend stay!”


“Stevin did great taking care of our 2 dogs while we were gone for 6 days over the 4th of July week. He was great about arranging a meet-and-greet in advance, and we chatted about how to care for the dogs. He supplied a large kennel for the one dog and supplied all the food and water dishes. He sent us notes twice a day with pictures, and the dogs always looked happy and content. He did an especially great job taking care of our one dog who is very timid and hates fireworks. He played music and played with them during the fireworks and he said she comfortably went to bed without a whimper. We were so delighted as this is usually one of her bad days when the fireworks scare her. All in all, Stevin did a terrific job and we will definitely use him again. Sparkle (and we) say thank you!!!”


“Michelle did a wonderful job taking care of our older, somewhat anxious dog. She made him feel right at home, made sure he was comfortable and had places to hide during the fireworks and storms, and kept us up-to-date with photos along the way. We'd highly recommend her!”


“Sarah made us feel like both us and our dog were part of her family. We were all very happy! When you know your dog is having fun and in good hands it really helps the separation. We will definitely be using Sarah again.”


About: I have owned and taken care of dogs for many years. Love spoiling fur babies. I have taken care of many senior dogs making sure their final days are the best. I am retired so your fur baby is my priority along with my two of my own. I offer belly rubs and tug of war at no charge. I have a fenced back deck that dogs can enjoy outdoor time on. I have two small dogs of my own to keep company with your pet. We must do a meet and greet to make sure all dogs get along

“Gloria was fanatastic!!! She took excellent care of our more sensitive dog, asking all the right questions upfront and giving several updates with photos throughout the day. She’s truly a professional. We are so thankful we found her and will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful..... they always take fantastic care of our golden retriever! Communication is always prompt and her pictures she shares are the best!”


“We couldn't have had a better experience. I am sure our big guy had a great time as he is tired from playing. We will defintely use Zoe's services again”


“Shawna was great with my two very energetic Boston Terriors. Her family was also wonderful as they included the pups in their everyday routine. Shawna is very personable and put my mind at ease from the first time I met her. I love the fact that she lives in the same town as me. I used the Rover services for four days. I received updates daily including photos…sometimes twice a day. As a pet mom I graciously appreciate that. My dogs seemed very content when we picked them up. My husband and I will definitely use Shawna as a pet sitter in the future. I feel like I made a new friend as well. Five out of five stars from me and my husband. 🐾”


“This is our first time with Sandra. We are extremely happy with her level of care and affection for Coco. She sent great pictures and admitted that Coco slept with Sandra…which we know Coco relished. We definitely recommend Sandra and we will have other opportunities for Coco to enjoy Sandra and her two dogs.”


“Kristy was so amazing! She communicated super well and sent lots of pics during our pups’ stay. I could tell she truly loves dogs and took the best care of ours while they were with her. I am super thankful that I knew they were in good hands while we were away. I would definitely board my dogs with her again.”


“Channing is just amazing! I got constant updates and pictures on how my anxious boy was doing, and it was obvious that even in the first hour of his stay he was completely at ease and having a great time. When I picked him up he came home and slept like a rock, so I know they were playing hard. She's all that I could ask for in a sitter and I highly recommend!”


“We left Harley with Penny and she sent constant updates which was very comforting! Harley can be a pain so it was nice to feel good about her stay!”


“Did a phenomenal job with my big, goofy Sheepadoodle. He did not want to leave and was moping around my house for the next 2 days because he missed all the fun he had at her house with the other dogs (a great sign of a good time). Would highly recommend Roxanne! Plenty of pictures and videos sent as well.”


“Donna was awesome with Rain. The communication was wonderful also. I would certainly board Rain again with Donna.”


“Teddy was well taken care of and seemed to have a great time. I received photos daily. I highly recommend. Yorya and her family will take good care of your pet.”


“My dog had a great time with Emily and her family! Emily was communicative and sent me regular updates and photos. Happy to book with her again in the future :)”


“Kos is the definition of a true pet lover!! He did an exceptional job of taking care of Miles. He has great communication skills, is always on time, and has a knack for providing the best for Miles. I would definitely be utilizing Kos’s services in the near future and so should you!!”
