“We are so thankful to have found Gage and Ann. They are attentive from start to finish, always answering our questions and helping to reassure us that our dogs are in great hands. Our pups felt right at home with Gage and Ann, quickly adapting and settling in for their vacation. It can be scary leaving your dogs with strangers, but Gage and Ann were immediately comfortable and kind, and so easy to work with from start to finish. We highly recommend them and will absolutely ask them to watch our dogs again in the future. Thank you so much, Gage and Ann!”

“If you're looking for someone to trust with your pup, definitely recommend Bill & Krista! Bill was so kind and great to work with. And by the sounds of it (confirmed with pictures) our anxious Mara Bear was living her best life while we were out of town. Will definitely be using them again!”

“This was the 2nd time we had our pup at Janelly & family's home, 1st time Chase stayed away/overnight from us since we got him. He had some hiccups with being away overnight, but Janelly and family kept him comforted and on track. This was also his 1st time meeting kitties, LOL. I think he knows to proceed with caution around them. We don't go away often, but we were so happy to have this family watch our pupper. Highly recommended!”

“Stefhany & Jean took good care of my little Jack. He stayed for one night and came back home in great shape. I have no hesitation in recommending them for pet services. Thank you both.”

“Alexus was great! She communicated with us. She sent us pictures and every time I checked in she responded, and she took very good care of our children!! She’s awesome I highly recommend her!”

About: For 60 years my wife, Kathy (Recently deceased)) & I have welcomed dogs in our lives. For the past 8 years we’ve enjoyed furry friends through Rover as“MOM & POP’S PET SITTING SERVICE.” Top Rover Reviews. I am starting anew on my own through Rover as “PAPA’S PET SERVICE.” Sorry, I don’t sit cats. look forward to sharing time with your little doggy guy or girl some time soon.❤️🐶 Since. My wife’s passing, I am alone & retired. Looking to share some time with dogs again. I live in a courtyard villa that is a wall protected playground. My house is dog friendly, just waiting to share time with your little furry one. Your dog will get excellent attention, love & care while here. My furniture & floors are clean.& pet-friendly with plenty of toys to enjoy. Even a doggy door. Come for a meet & greet and see for yourself.❤️🐶

“Laquita & James where so helpful and friendly. They gave me constant updates (with pics) of how my dog Millie was while I was gone. They genuinely care and it shows. Millie will be back next time we need a sitter for sure!”

“I really appreciate the boarding services! It was my first experience with the rover app, and Diana made me feel confident that my furry friend was well taken care of. She shared daily videos and pictures, which was wonderful. I would definitely recommend her services”

“She was so great with Benson, accommodating us very last minute on emergency and taking such great care of him, keeping me updated, giving him lots of love and play time. I so appreciate her and it's a great environment with a big yard and playmates. He had a blast and I'm so happy!”


“Krista was amazing! She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated. Our two golden retrievers had a blast and absolutely enjoyed their stay. Definitely recommend Krista as she truly went above and beyond to ensure our fur babies were well cared for.”

“Emily came home happy and tired from all the fun she had with Andi. She send us many pictures and messages letting us know how Emily was doing. Emily was very comfortable at Andi’s house and even got to sleep in bed with them.”

“I have 2 very clingy and special needs dogs with separation anxiety. She was very accommodating and sweet and I did not deserve her at alllll. But she took care of my babies while I was out of state. Truly, a blessing.”
“Debra was great with my sweet senior dog. Although my dog was sad and had separation anxiety Debra kept her safe and engaged giving her lots of attention. It was reassuring getting pictures of Olive relaxing at Debras place.”

“Taylor is amazing. It is obvious how much she loves all animals - I swear our fur babies come home better behaved than when I left them :). She is dependable, caring and affordable and you will be so glad you used her pet-services.”

“Sandra was very friendly, met us 2 weeks ago for introduction. During her stay, she sent pictures and updates about Alexa. She is very close to home so I'm sure Alexa will stay with her again.”

“I found Kristin at the last minute and she was wonderful all around. She made me feel at ease by sending me pictures and was great with communication! I will definitely use her again!”
