1. Sheila S.

“Sheila suggested a meet and greet before commitment which I appreciated as my 60 pound Boxer puppy can be a bit much. We enjoyed the videos and felt the home atmosphere versus a kennel was a better fit for him.”


2. Annmarie D.

“Annmarie did a phenomenal job with my dog Xena! Her dogs were very friendly, and got along great. I came with very short notice, and she was very attentive, flexible and and communicative, and I'd 100% go back to her in the future. Extremely happy with my experience!”


3. Tetyana A.

“Tetyana and her crew are fabulous. She took such wonderful care of my pup, provided activities and fun for him and great updates. Her dog Rocky was best bud for my Chester. Would definitely use her again and recommend her!”


4. Erin & Steven R.

“Erin amd Steven are the perfect fit for our dog. Our dog loved playing and staying with their family. They are exceptional when it comes to dog care, and go above and beyond standard boarding. They welcomed our pet into their family, and provided many pictures and videos. I can't think of a better place or environment for our dog who has high energy and is very social.”




5. Robert & Erika S.


“Amazing! Gave updates throughout the stay before I even asked for them. Sent pictures and videos, kept my mind at ease knowing my Raz was in good hands. Thank you both!!”


6. Andrea L.

“Amazing, definitely highly recommend. Our dog and cat are very social and need a lot of attention and they were very happy and comfortable from the start. Very responsive, friendly, provided a lot of updates and pictures. We found our go to for any future need for watching our pets.”


7. Scott F.

“This was my first time boarding my dog so I was understandably nervous. After meeting Scott and his wife, I was reassured Max would be well cared for and I enjoyed my week vacation. During the week I received frequent pictures and updates which was wonderful. Very assuring to the grandkids too. I would definitely recommend Scott to anyone needing a dog sitter and will definitely use him again”


8. Silver K.


“Silver was great with our german shepherd puppy. She’s never been away from me since young and I knew she was going to be pretty anxious as just leaving to go to the store meant she stared at the front door for an hour. The best part of Silver is her honesty. Most places would just say “doing great” just to keep you from feeling frustrated or worried but Silver was honest about her anxiousness or lack of play with other dogs and shyness. She tried to pull her out of her shell this last week while we were gone and I really appreciated it. I would use her again.”


9. Cheryl S.

“Cheryl is outstanding. She took great care of Apollo and gave me daily updates. Apollo had a fun time with her and her husband and came back home healthy and happy. I will definitely use her services again.”


10. Leah S.

“Thanks so much for loving Chacho when were vacationing. We loved the pictures and texts so we had no worries. We'll definitely use Leah again because Chacho was so happy and well cared for.”


11. Erin S.

“Erin was great! Send daily pictures and updates. Took care of my Bane like he was her own. Definitely will be having her dog sit in the future. One very happy dog momma here!”


12. Margaret W.

“Cannoli loved staying with Margaret again! Margaret kept us updated and sent lots of pictures. She took Cannoli for lots of walks and made sure she was comfortable and felt at home. We didn’t have to worry for one second because we knew she was getting the best care with Margaret.”


13. Dustin F.

“Dustin did an amazing job! Will absolutely book again. This was the first time for my dog to be booked alone, he seemed to fit right in with the family and thier new dog. I got great photos and videos of Jack too”


14. Mayrannie S.

“Stark had the best time with Mayrannie. This was our first time trying Rover and we are very happy with the entire experience. We would definitely consider Rover and Mayrannie for next time.”




15. Shannon S.

“Shannon did an awesome job. We had last minute plans and Shannon was able to accommodate. She sent us pictures of our dog throughout the day. I will definitely use Shannon again.”


16. Amanda D.

“We left our 2 year old Golden Retriever (Toby) with Amanda for 10 days while on vacation. Amanda was super flexible and did an excellent job keeping us up-to-date on how he was doing. Highly recommend and will be using again.”


17. Dan C.

“Dan and Claire did a great job watching Cooper. I could tell from all the pictures they shared while we were on vacation that Cooper was content, busy, and having a great time. I could see him enjoying the company of all the dogs there as well. Thank you so much!”


18. Belinda T.

“Winnie and Kody were well taken care of. We will definitely rebook!”


19. Mary M.

“I can't recommend Mary enough! I had to leave town for a trip and needed someone to care for my 10-month-old lab, and Mary was the perfect choice. From the moment we arrived, it felt like my dog was in the best hands—Mary and her dog were absolutely amazing. My lab and her Great Dane bonded instantly, and it was clear my pup was having the time of her life, playing, cuddling and even going for walks every day. Mary went above and beyond by sending regular updates and pictures, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. It felt less like a dog-sitting arrangement and more like leaving my dog with family. I could tell my dog was in a loving, caring environment. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you, Mary, for taking such wonderful care of my sweet girl! You are truly a gem!”


20. Dora D.

“Dora was by far the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. My dog was very comfortable in her house and made friends with Dora’s husband and their cute doggy. I constantly received pictures and videos from my dog which was really nice and comforting 😊 we will definitely choose Dora the next time we need a sister.”
