“Eniya was super responsive and attentive with our pup! She sent updates and pictures without having to ask. We would recommend Eniya to any of our friends and have already booked another stay.”

“Kyla is and was so amazing with my fur baby. For one, I was terrified because Eden has IVDD ( nerve condition that caused him to lose the functionality in his back legs) and I was like who is going to watch or even change a diaper on a dog. I have never seen anyone to attentive to my baby as if he were her baby. I’m so grateful to have found her and I will be a repeat client. Thank you again Kyla!!”


“Jeff was an excellent sitter for our 2-year-old Australian Shepherd! He was highly communicative, did a meet and greet beforehand, and very responsive while we were out of town. Our flight was delayed and he was very flexible about pick up, which was very appreciated. Teddy seemed to have a great time with him, and we will definitely use him for future trips!”

“Michelle was very professional despite my dog going through pretty heavy separation anxiety from me. Sadly I will not be using her again because I think my dog needs to be with more of a pack, but would recommend her to anyone who's looking for around the clock care of their precious furbaby. She was flexible, communicative and very polite.”

“Bailey is a dog whisperer. She took care of our poodle mix over the holiday and was extremely communicative and sent pics and videos/ so that we knew he was in good hands. She is so sweet and has a genuine understanding and love for dogs. Highly recommend! !”

“I can’t say enough amazing things about Cagatay and his family! My flights was delayed and he watched my dog another night, without hesitation. He provided pictures and updates every day - his little daughter looked so sweet with my little Bingley. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!”

“We felt very comfortable leaving our pup with Katherine and her beautiful family! Oliver seemed quite at home there. We typically have angst when leaving Oliver with the big doggie daycare chains, especially for several days. A home environment where there are people who care, interact, play and walk our pup puts us much more at ease.”

“Shirley is without a a doubt the best sitter we’ve ever had. It’s clear she truly cares about animals with her whole heart and treats every time she sits our pup as if he were her own. We keep coming back to Shirley again and again because of how easily she relieves us of any worry about how our pup is doing, and how happy he is to be with her while we’re gone. We highly recommend her for any type of service, and especially boarding in her home!”

“Thank you so much, Malchom and family, for taking such great care of Atlas! We booked last minute, and Malchom was incredibly accommodating. We’re so grateful to have found a sitter close to home who is communicative, attentive, and clearly loves dogs. Atlas was in great hands!”

“This was our first time leaving our dogs for such a long time - two weeks! But we had no worries at all while they stayed with Karen and Leigh. We got updates every day and our dogs were happy and healthy when we picked them up. Our dogs love staying at Karen’s!”

“Great communication and did amazing with our anxious doggie. It was hard to predict our dog’s anxiety level as she had never been away from us for so long, but they really made it work. Grateful for their service”

“Tanqueray was phenomenal with my sweet but anxious older little guy. She took his unique needs into consideration as she thoughtfully planned his stay. He was comfortable and happy, which I knew because he doesn’t usually go up to sitters to say bye when I pick him up. But he did this with her. He made new doggy friends on his walks (which he’s also not always up to) and he and Sir, a sweet little guy, got along wonderfully. I’m grateful for Tanqueray and the loving care she took of my pup.”

“Tamara is a sweetheart! We were in town for the Stones concert and needed a sitter for the night! She was very nice, prompt and kept us updated. Our Boston, Maggie, loved her and had a great time. Next time we are passing thru town we will definitely contact Tamara. Thanks so much!”

“Janet is an excellent caregiver and did a wonderful job with our little Einstein! We have previously boarded him at kennels, and upon pickup he was usually a nervous wreck. We decided to give Rover a try, and I am so glad we did! Janet kept in touch with us and gave us updates throughout our trip, and I can tell she really cared for him like one of her own. He was happy as a clam at pickup, no timidness or just seeming exhausted. I would highly recommend her and would definitely have our boy stay with her again on future trips!”

“Angelina went above and beyond caring for our Butterscotch. Excellent communication and multiple pictures sent every day. She even noticed his itchy skin issue and offered to recommend homeopathic remedies. Will definitely be booking with her again.”

“10/10! Susan was an amazing host to my little guy! He loved his time there. Susan is great with communication & sends plenty of pics! I’ll most definitely book again !”

We are so grateful to have found a trusted caregiver for Wiggles! Tamara is so incredibly nice and flexible when we had an unforeseen circumstance change our plans. Wiggles had such a good time playing with her friends, we were worried she was disappointed to come home! Thank you Tamara, Maggie, and Paulie!

Our dogs had a great time on their boarding stay with Malchom and his family. Great communication before and during their stay. We really appreciated the updates. The back yard was an awesome place for the dogs to get some fresh air and I could tell the dogs got lots of attention. Thanks for taking such good care of our dogs!!

We recently boarded our dog Floyd and had an amazing experience. Jasmin went above and beyond. We received daily pictures and videos, and she communicated everything related to Floyd so we always felt at ease. It was clear he was well taken care of and comfortable the entire time. We would absolutely recommend Jasmin to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog boarding provider, and we will definitely board with her again. 🐾

My Bogey always acted like we were abandoning him at the shelter when we dropped him off in boarding environments, but after meeting Katherine and her crew, he was excited to explore with his new friends, and the photos that Katherine sent proved he was having a great time. They have a very lovely and dog friendly home and yard and you can tell they get to know the pets they care for. We will absolutely use them again.

Coren was great with Piper. He asked lots of questions during the meet and greet to make sure he understood Piper's needs. When I picked up Piper from her stay, she seemed in great spirits. I feel like Coren treated Piper like his own. I would definitely use him again and recommend him to others.
