Alissa is fantastic. She took very good care of our little chihuahua Lilo. I loved getting the picture updates and communication was top notch. She got back to me very quickly on every text or message I sent. Her house is pet friendly in a great location. Lilo doesn't like most people. She seemed to bond with Alissa, which is saying something about her. It tells me, she is kind, loving and trustworthy. Which I'd the only way to get Lilo to like you. I would not hesitate to use her pet sitting services again, and would highly recommend her as the perfect fit for taking care of any dog. Thank you Alissa for taking such good care of little Lilo!! AAAA++++

Patience was incredible to work with this weekend. I always get a little nervous leaving my dog with people but she calmed my nerves right away. She was very communicative, sent pictures and I know my little guy was in great hands! I would recommend her very highly to anyone looking for boarding!

Headed down to Florida last minute and Jennifer was not only super fast at responded but fantastic with Maggie. Must have worn her out playing with Max because she slept the entire way home! Definitely my new go-to if I need a sitter down there again

My first time leaving my baby with anyone & he was the absolute best, updated me everyday even though I couldn't respond the messages still came in. Hands down the best experience and I can tell because when I picked her up and got home she was a lil depressed so I know for sure they loved her up & I can definitely tell a difference in her from being with them.. I would recommend him 100* over trust u will not be disappointed..

Shannon made us feel very comfortable about leaving our dog with her. She updated daily with pictures and how she was doing and adjusting. It was so nice to be away and to know she was taken care of and happy. River came home exhausted from a week of fun with Shannon and her pets. If you are hesitant to leave your pet but looking for someone who really cares, I can't recommend Shannon enough and I am really happy we found her listing and were able to use her services.

Fabian was fantastic with our boys ares and cinnamon. I received daily pics and updates. Our dogs are usually rambunctious and high energy. Our dogs came back calm, happy and exhausted clearly from having a great time. He also gave some tips on how to better train them. 10/10 and I highly recommend him and will be using his services again!

Cherie was awesome! Thank you!! You can tell she genuinely loves animals and we could see our furry baby Luna totally felt that. She sent us updates and pictures every day, which made it super easy to relax and know Luna was being loved and cared for while we were out of town. Super sweet, quick to respond, and just really took great care of our girl. Highly recommend!

Thank you Jan for taking care of our Fuzzy. We traveled at the last minute and were planning on keeping our dog with us in the hotel. We decided to search to see if there are any sitters available in the area and that’s how I found her with awesome reviews. She was prompt in responding to my messages and was able to coordinate care. We received constant updates with messages and pictures.

This was my first time ever using the Rover app and I was nervous to find someone who would treat my dog as if he was home. Rebekah was absolutely amazing. She was kind and really treated my dog as if he was her own. She has 2 dogs of her own and although they are much bigger than my dog, they got along great. I would book her again!

Our siberian husky Link stayed with Ashton for a week while we were on vacation in Panama City Beach. Ashton took amazing care of Link and he got his own vacation there. Would highly recommend that anyone needing any pet services (boarding, grooming, etc.) in the area choose Ashton! We will definitely bring Link back the next time we are in town.

Brittany is an answer to my prayers. My baby does not do well in boarding situations with all the dogs barking and being locked in a cage. So, I found Brittany and she is perfect for my baby. Plenty of love and attention. When I got her home it was like I had never been gone. We found our person❤️So grateful

Cathryn is wonderful! She communicates in a timely manner, and our little dog, Daisy, seems very comfortable with her. We had an issue getting back into town on time, but Cathryn was understanding and was able to work with us for an extra day (we're so appreciative!!). She's pretty great. I'll happily ask her to watch Daisy for us in the future.
