1. Kristy T.
“Absolutely amazing! I can't say enough good things about Kristy! She listened to all of our concerns and little quirks about our boys and made us feel completely welcomed. She sent us multiple pictures of our boys while they were with her, and our puppy had a great time playing with another dog she was watching! She has a fenced in backyard with a doggy door that allows constant outside access which my older boy especially liked. I will definitely be using her services in the future and highly recommend Kristy!”
2. Joseph B.
“Savannah had a good time with Joe, she got to go on walks, have her treats and just chill out on his couch with him. It didn't take her very long to roll over to get her tummy rubbed, either. Joe kept me updated with photos of her and I texted him with little things I forgot to mention. We will definitely be having Joe take care of her again!”

6. Melissa H.
“Melissa was amazing. I’d never boarded my dog before and was a littler nervous. She seemed very confident when we met and I could tell my dog immediately respected her. While I was gone, she sent me pictures and updates of how my dog was doing. I can tell he enjoyed his stay with her and was taken care of. She even gave us a handwritten card saying thank you! I’ll definitely be reaching out to Melissa again if I need someone to watch him.”

11. Angela B.
“Angela was the best sitter I have ever used in Rover. She was very caring but prefessional. She slowly introduced my dog to her dog, Goldie by separating her at fist meet, because Angela considered that my dog is scared of some big dogs. She is very considering and ma”
12. Lauryn P.
“We had to travel overseas and we needed someone to look after our furbaby for over a month period while we were gone. I know it was a big commitment for her but Lauryn went above and beyond taking care of my dog. She sent us videos, pictures throughout and also checked with me for anything unusual. I could feel at ease even when I was away for so long. Thank you so much Lauryn. Dalgu is already looking forward to her next stay with you. 😁”
