“Emily took great care of our pup, Toby! He is 10 weeks old and she was capable of managing the extra needs of a young puppy. Emily was very communicative and responsive to messages. We would send our pup to be cared for by her again!”


“My pup Popsicle loves Cynthia and gets so excited to see her! Cynthia gives excellent ‘pupdates’ and is super-communicative, so when you’re away from your pup (and missing them), you’ll get beautiful pics and updates. She treats my pup like family, and I’ve hired her again and again!”


“Gilian was so patient with Oakley on his first sitter experience!! She kept me updated on how he was, concerns she had, and pictures. We got stuck in a family emergency and she came through to watch Oakley last minute, I highly recommend her!!”



“Kind and professional, very easy to work with and quick to respond. I needed somewhere for my girl to go where she could be around other dogs while I was swamped for the day, within 1 hour I had a daycare appointment set up with Brad. He sent me pictures of her smiling and cuddling while she was there. Will definitely be going back.”

“Sarah and her pack did awesome!!! Can't thank her enough for taking in Winnie on such short notice. When I picked up Winnie I was taken back at how much Winnie had bonded with Sarah in such a short period of time. Sarah was aware of Winnie's IBD issues and updated me on how she did. I really appreciated her for that!!!! This family definitely loves dogs!!!”

“My dog had a great time staying at Tina and Cameron's for a fun-filled day of daycare. She enjoyed two walks, got to run around in their large fenced in backyard, and was able to socialize with their two dogs! Tina was so sweet and I felt really comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care. You can tell right away that her and Cameron are extremely knowledgeable and have a lot of experience in caring for dogs. My dog came home very happy and ready for a nap - perfect! :) Definitely will be a repeating customer!”


About: I am a retired dog dad who is in need of more happy dog activity on our ranch! I love all dogs and look forward to welcoming your furry family member into our home and care. I have a 3yr old German Short Haired Pointer (Ava) that has yet to meet a dog she doesn't get along with or that can keep up with her:) Your dog will be well cared for and will definitely get their workout, if that's what their up for. I understand all dogs have their own special needs and I am more than willing to try to accommodate! I am retired and spend 99% of my time at home on the ranch. When I am caring for dogs, my time away from home, if absolutely necessary would be limited to less than an hour. My homestead is a private wildlife sanctuary in Stoughton that has trails throughout the property for daily hikes on or off leash depending on your dogs trustworthiness:)

About: I love dogs big and small. I have a lot of experience with larger breeds. I have 3 of my own, a yellow lab, German Shepherd, and a boxer mix. I wish I could have 20! I have a lot of availability, as I only work one and a half days per week. I teach fitness classes and I love being active, so lots of doggy walks are right up my alley! I'm happy to play with your pup, frisbee, ball, or any other favorite toy of theirs. Or maybe a good snuggle or belly rub is what they love, then that is what they will get! Your furbaby will have my full attention. I will make sure they are well taken care of and their needs are met!

“Kara is wonderful! She has been so flexible in arranging Birdie’s care and very attentive to Birdie’s needs. This is Birdie’s first daycare experience and it went really well thanks for Kara.”



“I couldn't wait to do this review, sincerely. I chose Sarah for my first time using Rover services. She gave me such confidence in this service. She sent me photos of Butters and text updates. It made my heart sing! I wanted a date night while traveling cross country through Santa Fe. I left my senior dog (13 yo) with Sarah and it was a dream. I can't say enough about how smoothly it all went; thanks to Sarah and her compassion and thoughtfulness.”
