“This is our first Rover booking and we couldn't be happier. Brooke did an excellent job of making sure our "new to us" rescue dog had a good experience. Amee got to read stories at bedtime and take walks with the family. She'll be back for more fun.”


“This was our first experience with a home stay and it was awesome in every way. Steve answered my questions and made drop off so easy. Nellie was immediately comfortable and I left knowing she was going to have a great experience. We got a couple of nice updates during the stay. We have already rebooked for another stay! I 100% recommend Steve and Tilaine. What a wonderful family. Thank you!”


“This was our dog's first boarding experience and we are so grateful to have found Nicole! Our pup needed more time to warm up to the stay than I might have guessed, but Nicole and her family are experienced dog owners and let her settle in on her own terms. She got lots of love during her stay and Nicole sent us several much appreciated updates throughout. Highly recommend!”


“Nicole (and her family) took the best care of Margot while our family was at Disney. She communicated and organized a meet up with plenty of time in advance and made sure I was comfortable. She answered the many questions I had and it was obvious how much she loved having dogs in her home. From the minute Margot was in her care, I received pictures and videos. Her entire family loved on Margot and even with an unexpected health issue during Margot’s stay, I never doubted she was being loved. Can’t wait to have Margot stay with them again!”


About: I know how energetic dogs are, and I am as well so we’re a perfect match! I can keep them entertained while they are also making my day so much brighter! I am a full time student but classes do not take up much of my day! I love to go on long walks and I can entertain any dog for hours. I can do late afternoons and mornings, as well as nights if need be. I have 2 dogs at home, but here at college I do not have any pets. My apartment does allow pets so it would be no problem to have them over:) I also have the option of a fenced in yard if your little pup prefers to run around freely.

“We absolutely loved having our Weimaraner, Hollis stay with Jacquelyn and her family! We felt so comfortable leaving her and Hollis enjoyed her time with them as well! There was never a doubt that she was safe and in excellent hands with them. We will definitely be rebooking with Jacquelyn every time we need to leave our Hollis.”


“Amanda spoiled our dog all weekend! Played catch and cuddled and let him take a nap in her lap (he's almost 100 lbs so that was above and beyond the call of duty)! Another plus is there were 4-5 large dogs for Osborne to play with in Amanda's fenced in backyard so he came home happily exhausted. Amanda was extremely flexible in drop off/pick up times which was greatly appreciated as we were heading out of town for the weekend. She also carefully monitored his food so he only ate his food and didn't sneak other dog food and get an upset stomach. Highly recommend Amanda!”


“Wendy is absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond to make our pups stay the best experience is could be. She exceeded our expectations and then some, we couldn't have been happier with our experience. We will definitely be using Wendy's services again in the future.”


“Communication was great with Kelly, from scheduling the initial meeting and throughout the duration of Maggi's stay. Lots of pictures and updates. Maggi had lots of fun with her dog and family. I'm a little worried that Maggi was actually sad to come home. Highly recommend Kelly's sitting services and will definitely seek her out in the future.”


“Samantha was amazing! She send me photos and updates of Carl and was so helpful to do a late pickup because of my flight delay. I would definitely feel safe and happy if I get to board Carl with her.”


“Jalyn did a tremendous job with our little pup Lexie! It was our first trip away, and Jalyn sent multiple updates throughout the days, which made us feel very comfortable with Lexie in her care. Lexie came home happy and ready for a nap from all the adventures over the weekend. We will be using Jalyn’s services again, and we highly recommend!”


“Amazing boarding experience!!! Erin was wonderful taking on a last minute boarding booking for my girl. She was very attentive to all the details of taking care of my pup and keeping in communication with me before and during my time away. My girl enjoyed snuggles, walks, and meeting Erin’s roommates. I could tell she enjoyed her stay from the photo updates. Whether your pup has a lot of specifics for their care or you just need someone reliable and dependable, Erin is wonderful! Definitely will be booking again in the future. Thank you again Erin!”
