1. Nick & Rebecca J.

“Nick and Rebecca were wonderful. Not only are they caring people for pets, they have a great open property for your dog to roam freely. We will be return customers when we're back on Orcas Island.”


2. Daisy D.

“This is our dogs' first boarding experience since they were pups. Daisy and her family (who came highly recommended) made it great for both our dogs and us. This wonderful family are all engaged in the process and the dogs took to them very fast. It was clear to us that our dogs, with all their quirks, were well loved and taken care of. We also got lots of updates and photos. We have already booked more visits.”

4. Kelsey W.

“Worked great with my dog! Had some very good suggestion and made some observations that I had thought about! 10/10! I would definitely recommend!”


5. Kelsey M.

“I’m so happy to have found Kelsey. It was my first time boarding Momo so I was a little anxious. I knew she’d be in home hands once I dropped her off. Kelsey was calm, attentive and knowledgeable. He responded quickly and sent a lot of pictures throughout the day. We highly recommend Kelsey and would love to come back.”


6. Melissa G.

“Melissa is a kind caregiver who my quiet and sometimes nervous little Shih Tzu liked and was happy at pick up. She sent me daily photos while I was away and took great care of Susie. We’ll be choosing Melissa again for caregiving!”


7. Bill & Gerie T.

“Juno had a lovely stay at Bill and Gerie’s! Communication with them was great and we loved getting updates sent to us. We’ll definitely be rebooking with them in the future!”




8. Kris G.

“Kris was more than we could have hoped for! From the minute we arrived we knew our boys' stay would worry free. She immediately made sure they felt at home and even asked if they could sleep in the bed and that really made us feel like she cared! She has a great yard and several very friendly dogs to play with. We will definitely take our boys to her every time we're in the Bellingham area! 5 stars!”


9. Lisa W.

“Lisa and her daughter took wonderful care of my anxious chihuahua! During Fin’s stay, they took her to the park and gave her so many snuggles! We will be booking with her again! 🩷🐾”


10. Andrea C.

“Andrea and her family took great care of our Loki for a week, following the care instructions we provided and sending us frequent updates and photos. We felt Loki was in great hands, we would not hesitate to recommend her and book with her again if we are ever in need again in Victoria!”


11. Virginia E.

“Virginia took great care of our puppy while we were away. I highly recommend her. We felt great knowing that she was in a loving home with sweet people.”

13. Sarah A.

“Sarah was amazing. Great communication, flexible, and treated our dogs like members of her family. We will definitely have her watch our dogs in the future and highly recommend her to others. John and Kim H.”


14. Emilie N.


“Emilie and partner were amazing. They were gracious and polite and gave our doggie everything that he needed during his extended stay. Emily took charge immediately and we felt confident that she would be the right fit for our doggie. We received pictures and video daily and we could tell he had loads of fun and exercise while at her home and during outings. We would absolutely have Emilie take care of our doggie again and would highly recommend her to others.”




15. Marta B.


“Finn stayed with Marta and Phil for an extended weekend while we were on Orcas Island. They took great care of him! This was my first time to use Rover. I was fairly confident I had selected a good sitter based on all of the information on Marta's bio. After meeting Marta and Phil in person, I knew for sure Finn was in very capable hands; I did not worry about him at all. As expected, Finn was happy and healthy when I picked him up. Marta and Phil treated Finn like family. They inquired about all of his habits and patterns in an effort to keep him in his routine and comfortable. There was another fur baby staying at the house at the same time. They made sure the dogs were introduced properly and got along. Marta and Phil even took the pups to the community concert on the island. Finn had a fabulous time! Additionally, Marta communicated frequently (with pictures) and was very responsive. I highly recommend Marta and Phil, and I plan to book with them again on our next trip to Orcas. Thank you for taking such good care of Finn, Marta and Phil!”


16. Anika K.

“Anika is a fantastic dog sitter! We left our dog with her for three nights to go on a trip, and it was a great experience. Anika introduced her dogs to ours in advance to make sure they were a good match. This helped our dog to quickly feel comfortable in their space. During our trip, Anika sent us pictures and videos every day to keep us updated, and generously adjusted to our schedules and needs. Communication with her was easy and straightforward. 100% would book again and recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”


17. Amy K.

“Amy and her son Teddy are super awesome!! Amy kept us updated with pictures and messages regularly. Jammy had regular walks and best time in their yard. She was well taken care of and we felt happy knowing she is in safe hands and well taken care of!! Highly recommend Amy and would board Jammy again with them :) :)”


18. Holli W.


“Holli and Sean have been so helpful with Rico! I trust them completely. He gets lots of walks and diligent care. Thank you so much for your help.”


19. Jocelyn E.

“I had a great experience with Jocelyn taking care of my dog, Coco. They were attentive, caring, and kept me updated the whole time. Coco came back happy. Highly recommend!”


20. Alexis D.


“Alexis and her family took great care of Piper while we were out of town for the weekend. She communicated very well and give us updates on how she was doing. They took her exploring and to the park. Piper was tuckered out when we picked her up, which is always a great sign. Piper seemed to really warm up to her son which is so sweet.”
