“Returning customers, here! We had such a great experience the first time, we knew exactly who to call this go around. It is such a lovely feeling knowing our dog will be going on a little vacation herself when she gets to stay here. It’s not just boarding…they do it right. They play, enrich, and love on our pup. We have definitely found our go-to sitters.”


“Luna loves Griffin & Gloria! Griffin is very attentive to Luna and us, he is always making sure we get tons of pictures and videos of her while away from us.”


“I highly recommend them! I boarded my Golden Retriever for 4 days and looks like he had tons of fun! They respond very quickly and could accommodate the drop off and picking up hours to my schedule. They sent me pics and kept me updated about how he was doing. Thank you Beth&Dylan!!”


“Shay communicated well with me before and during the stay. She was patient with my dog while he was adjusting. I saw pictures of him enjoying himself. I think my dog got spoiled.”


“Ryan is the best!! My little guy Kairo loves him so much and feels right at home with how great Ryan treats him. I love the pictures he sends me also! They always look like they are having a good time. Ryan is family now! He’s watched Kairo twice and soon for a third time and I feel so at ease knowing Kairo is 100% safe and taken care of with Ryan.”


“We are very happy with the attention and care that Hank received during his stay. We appreciated the pictures and communication. We have already booked for another upcoming trip! Thank you!”


“Kiki was in great spirits when I picked her up so I know she enjoyed her time with Elaine, whom sent awesome updates and pics of Kiki. Highly reccomend booking with Elaine!!”


“Manda and her partner were absolutely god sent! They watched my two princesses for back to back trips with a short space in between! Because I’m obsessed with my girls, she sent me plenty of pictures and messaged me about them all the time. Whenever I need a sitter she would be it! She was flexible with me with drop off/pick up times and last minute changes to my channel. Thank you again Manda for taking great care of my two girls ☺️”


“Derrika and her family are so sweet and amazing. Kiki might like them more than me! She has the best time when she says with Derrika, cannot reccomend more! Derrika will send all the cute pictures and you won't worry in the slightest. Book her immediately!”


“Second great stay for my two dogs with Billie. Not sure they wanted to come home ;) Billie always keeps me up to date on how they're doing. Her notes and pictures are a pleasure to receive. Will book again with no hesitation.”


“Denise and Jeff are absolutely phenomenal pet sitters — truly the gold standard on Rover! They took care of our 11-month-old puppy, Walter, for 7 days, and we couldn’t be more grateful. From the very beginning, they were incredibly thoughtful and professional. We met with them beforehand to introduce Walter and go over his care, and they asked all the right questions — from feeding schedules and walking routines to favorite toys and any medical needs. It was clear right away that they’re both experienced and genuinely passionate about animals. While we were away, they kept in constant contact and sent us daily updates with adorable pictures and detailed notes about what Walter had been up to. It felt like he was on his own little doggy vacation! The peace of mind they gave us was priceless — and honestly, with the level of attention and love they gave him, they should probably be charging double! We will absolutely be contacting them every time we need a sitter. It’s such a relief knowing that we have such a kind, responsible, and loving couple we can trust with our little guy. If you're looking for dependable, attentive, and truly wonderful dog sitters, book Denise and Jeff — you (and your pup!) will be so glad you did.”


“Rhiannon and Rachel took great care of Carson. Communication was excellent. Drop off and pick up went smoothly. Looking forward to using them again!”


“Bella was well taken care of. She came back happy and I don’t think wanted to leave. I would definitely recommend Shysie and will definitely be going back to her!!”


“Shelly did a great job babysitting my Samson! You can tell she really cares about what she does and the dogs she watches. She worked with me to acclimate Samson to a new environment and made him feel comfortable and welcomed. I was very appreciative of the daily communication with pictures and keeping me posted on how he was doing. I felt confident he was in good hands while I was away. I would highly recommend Shelly to anyone needing a great place for their dog to stay!”



“Tylarr did amazing job with my 2 dogs. I was so nervous leaving my 2 dogs and using Rover. Her daily photos really helped ease my nerves. Also when I came to pick them up and she offered to watch them again and gave me her card. This really made the whole experience excellent. Thank you and I would recommend Tylarr in a heart beat.”


“Natalie and her family took amazing care of Kali while we were out of town! They sent pictures and let us know how she was doing, highly recommend!”


“What a great place to have your dog play and have fun while you travel. Louie loves Bart and his house. I can’t enough good things about Louie’s stay.”

“Continue to use these wonderful ladies because they have great availability and love on my pup like their own! They even made my pup a bday cake since she was staying with them during her birthday weekend. She always has a great time with this sitter!”


“Highly recommend. Was great with my dog and very easy to plan drop off/pick up. My dog loved it and good communication while he was staying there (pictures, updates, etc.).”


“Abigail was great! She was so welcoming of our dogs and their quirks. She also kept us updated and I got pictures every day. Our dogs seemed to have a blast with her and her poodle. 😊”
