Megan went way above and beyond what was expected. She is a great communicator and I knew that my giant baby of a dog was in great hands so I was really able to enjoy my time. Megan was very pleasant and easy to deal with, I highly recommend her! A++++.

Margarida and her family are true dog-lovers!! They welcomed my dog, Rio with great warmth and understanding. It was Margarida who suggested a ‘meet and greet’ before our first doggy-care session to ensure that her dog Eliot and Rio will get along well. This meeting was a great success and put us both at ease. During the doggy-care session, I not only received updates, pictures and videos; but also got a report card for Rio at the end of the day. Very impressive!! Already re-booked Rio for boarding.

Nikki was great! My pup Snoopy was upset I was dropping him off and Nicki reassured me that he settled down and was having fun and playing. She made sure he ate his food and took beautiful pictures as well. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!

Namrata has a beautiful home and yard where my grand dog had a really fun time. He has pretty bad separation anxiety, but her gigantic yard was a great distraction for a dog who doesn't get a chance to run very often, especially with new friends. He and Tin Tin had a lot of fun playing together. My daughter and I are calmer knowing we have a place to bring our boy when he visits Granny. I am recommending her to my friend as well.

About: I have cared for canines in their own home. I currently do not board. I can take them to regular social class and pick them up from dog day care. Weekends are the best for me with s open schedule from day to night. I can do overnights with some notice and provide constant communication. We have a fence in yard on a 3/4 acre plot. We have a pool which is also fenced in to provide extra pet friendly.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life! I have spent time with puppies right out of the womb and old dogs in their last years (and every age in between). I am excited to give your dog the love and care that they deserve. :) I currently work part-time. At most, I will be leaving your dog 4-5 hours at a time, but often, I can be with them all day. Reach out, and we can see what kind of care your dog needs! I will always want to work with your plan for keeping your pet safe, since you know them best. Your dog will be well-loved and cared for with me.

About: Sorry due to rover taking a 20% fee now, I have to raise my prices. It was 10% before. I love animals, I’ve owned animals my whole life, I have two pet bunnies. (They live in my garage, not house, other animals don't have access) I also own a beagle, he’s 12 . He’s very friendly and loves other dogs, specially people, he's friendly with cats. I volunteer at animal shelters and I'm going for my vet technician degree. . I take my dog out in the morning for a walk, he gets many walks through out the day, I have a flexible job where I chose my own hours / schedule but during those hours I choose I'm on call and might have to leave, usually always have one other person home but if your dog cannot be left alone I can fix my work schedule to work with you. I will love your pet like my own until you come back home. If your pet is staying at my house, we have a big back yard that has a lead for your dog, also a nice quiet street I live on for walks. my dog will be around your pet so please also have a friendly pet. Besides that, daily feeding, daily pets&love, brushing, exercise, playtime. Your pets will get all of that.
