1. Kimmy & Michael B.
“They took great care of our sweet Ellie. The updates on how she's doing with pictures attached are very appreciated. This was our girl's 2nd stay with them and it won't be her last. We're so thankful we found a good place for her to go when we can't bring her with us.”
2. Shai C.
“WOW!! What a great experience I had with Shai ?. She was very responsive to all my correspondence and she treated Vinnie like family! I was provided daily photos and I could tell he was comfortable and being well cared for. I would definitely recommend Shai to anyone looking for an Awesome, hands-on dog sitter.”
3. Savannah C.
“I will most definitely be using Savannah’s services again! She was so accommodating, to the point where she kept Kenai an extra day last minute since my flight back home was delayed due Hurricane Francine. She made sure to send pictures and videos on a regular basis, which eased my mind greatly. Would recommend Savannah 100%!”
4. Candy B.
“Candy's home is located in the country on Bayou Teche with lots of room for the dogs to play or relax. She is laid back and accommodating while also providing a watchful eye over everything. We have never boarded the dogs with anyone and so I weighed all options carefully: boarding at the vet, boarding at a local Doggie Daycare, home visits, and boarding with someone at Rover and I have no regrets with my decision. I'm more than happy that we boarded the pups with Candy. I will choose her every single time. Thank you, Candy! We all give you 5 stars!!”
5. Susan H.
“Talk about above and beyond -- when I couldn't keep a much needed and long awaited grooming appointment, Susan got the kids to the salon for me. Flexibility for the win!”

7. Vanessa B.
“This was my big boys first time being with a sitter. I must say he wasn't to happy. Vanessa was extremely patient and kind with him. She allowed him the time to trust her. By the end of the first evening he was jumping all over her. She was awesome!! I would definitely recommend her services to everyone. ?”
