“John had my Bruno for over 2 weeks and he was wonderful. My dog is very attached to me and I worried about leaving him with a stranger. My Bruno quickly adopted John and he was treated better than John treats his own dogs. John sent me pictures with comical stories daily. I did feel like John became a little attached to my Bruno because he didn’t want him to leave. He even offered to trade 3 of his dogs for my 1 Bruno. I would highly recommend and would definitely use him again.”
“Eric was super responsive to my worries with placing Juno for overnight boarding. Juno is very anxious and Eric and his family were kind ,caring and understanding. He sent pictures and texted which helped me feel connected. Juno also found a doggy friend and this calmed her anxiety. I already booked another stay with Eric. Highly recommend Eric!”
“Ricardo is highly experienced and equipped to let your dogs have a wonderful retreat ! Super nice and accommodating on a wonderful large open ranch !”
“We absolutely love having Cheyenne dog sit our energetic senior pup named Chief. She is commutative, flexible, understanding, and provides Chief with the same love and care he gets at home. Our pup enjoys playing with her pup and always feels right at home. I would highly recommend you utilize her dog sitting services! Thank you Cheyenne for your kindness and compassion. We appreciate you.”

“Fantastic family, they were great with our dog. And sometime, by pictures sent us, I’ve had the impression that our dog would want to change homes 😁. we had a lovely experience with Rachael and Garth. Many thanks”
“We dropped off our dog, Alfie, on our way to the outerbanks as our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs and we are so glad we booked with Kristin. Alfie had so much fun playing at their home and Kristin made sure to keep us updated with photos throughout the entire trip.”
“Christianna and Cheddar were excellent hosts! After a bad Rover experience several years ago and waiting till the last min to board our fur baby, Christianna let us come over to see where Leila would be kept and introduce the dogs prior to leaving her there for a week. She has a huge fenced in yard, sent me lots of pictures and kept in touch daily to let us know how Leila was doing. She has reaffirmed my faith in dog watching strangers and Rover. Will definitely use her again.”
“Kovu loved Sara and her pup Theo! He had a great time playing in the backyard and relaxing on the furniture. Sara was very respondent and sent lots of photos to make me feel good about leaving my pup behind.”
“Awesome sit! We needed a last minute sitter and were coming from out of town to an event our doggo could not attend. When we dropped our doggo off he was super calm and which made me feel better. Ample room for the dogs to play in the yard, and plenty of human interaction to keep our Velcro dog happy! Thank you for treating our doggo like one of your own!”
“Susan is a lifesaver! I could tell the love for dogs she has within an instant of meeting her. Extremely accommodating, maintains the pup’s daily schedule and routines, and is very communicative. I highly recommend!”
“We were having a hard time finding someone through Rover who was available to help watch Bentley, but Elizabeth was super accommodating and took in Bentley even though she was already watching another dog (she had the owner's approval for Bentley to join). From our first interaction, we knew Bentley was being left in great hands. She's very friendly, attentive, and does her best to maintain your dog's normal schedule. Not to mention Bentley had the best time with her dog Sprinkles, and loved sitting out back with her. We received updates and pictures as requested, and could tell Bentley was having a blast. Anytime we are in the area again, we will definitely be reaching out!”
“Kimberly was so awesome! She was very responsive and great with my dog skippy. I was super nervous about leaving him for the first time but skippy loved his stay especially with her little hulk. She surely treated him as if he was her own. I will 10/10 use her as a sitter again.”
“Theresa was so wonderful to my dog, Charlotte. This was the first time I left my dog with someone other than family and I felt completely comfortable and was able to enjoy my vacation. When I picked Charlotte up after staying at Theresa’s, she slept for an entire day, which shows me that she got plenty of exercise and was well taken care of. Thank you Theresa! I will certainly contact you next time Charlotte needs a home away from home while in the Outer Banks!”
“Would definitely use Zach and Melissa’s pet sitting services again! My little dog Teddy seemed to enjoy himself, walking with Rosie and playing with the kids. Nice family. Thank you for making room for Teddy.”
“We had a great experience boarding our dog with Rose! Her facility is awesome and we felt very confident leaving our pup in her care! We loved the security measures she takes to ensure our babies safety and that dogs are kept separate during their stay! Overall very friendly person and great boarding option! Highly recommend Rose and we will for sure book again next time we are visiting the area!”
