“Ann was great, she has excellent accommodations for my furbabies. Ann is exceptionally great at communicating updates throughout the stay while our two children were in her care.”
“I’ve used a number of Rover hosts over the years, and I have to say that Dee has been the best. She unquestionably cared for my dog. She kept me updated with how his stay was going, and we had a blast at Dollywood without concern for my dog (who has major separation anxiety).”
“As far as I can tell, Frances did a good job She wasn't good with sending updates or photos. I didn't know when she arrived or left. So late that night, I was concerned something happe.ed and my animals were alone. I messaged and received a response the next morning. She was good at communicating on Daturday but I don't know if she left early, late or on time. The water bowl was empty anf most likely had been for a while because it had been k locked over, which is what one of my girls diesn when its empty to say she needs water. With the time I got in, it would not have been empty if Frances left when she was supposed to amd had checked the water bowl.”
“Renee did a wonderful job. She kept me informed on how Leo was doing. She sent me pictures. She responded as soon as I text her. I could tell that he was being loved and that he was doing fine. I would use her again in a heartbeat. She was wonderful”
“Gibbs had his third stay with Ryan and his family, which was an overnight visit this time. I received photos of him having a great time and being pampered. I will certainly keep leaving Gibbs with Ryan and his family whenever I need to be away.”
“Cassy took the best care of Red and Xena during their boarding stay! She sent me regular updates with photos and videos. She provided a home environment for our dogs where they received lots of attention and play time. I highly recommend Cassy for private boarding!”
“Melissa is fabulous. I was nervous, with a senior dog who hadn't boarded, yikes! Melissa sent updates and pics and responded any time i reached out. My pup came home happy and healthy. I'll definitely be using her services again!”
“Deb was absolutely amazing! We got updates daily and our Zola was so happy playing with her new furry friends! I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their fur baby!”
“This was the first time we had left our puppy with anyone. Angie took the time to let us know how Molly was doing and sent pictures throughout the week. We will definitely call on Angela again.”
“Brittany and her family is absolutely phenomenal with my dog Oscar. He has stayed with her multiple times and will continue to go back when she is available if I go on vacation or something comes up. I am grateful that she treats him like her own, stays in contact with me, and keeps me up to date with pictures of him!! Thank you ♥️”

“Kat was more than amazing! We left our pup with her for 10 days and she not only took amazing care but also documented all of her food intake and stool health. Constantly took pictures! I’m sure this will not be the last time we leave our pup with Kat. We couldn’t have chosen a better sitter!”
“Wendy was so great! We felt a little anxious to leave our three dogs for five days until we found her. She knew our personalized instructions for each of our dogs when we met and thought of many things we hadn’t. Every question we asked, she seemed to have already thought through. She was very open and informative. While we were away, Wendy sent us multiple photos and updates daily, which we really appreciated. She went the extra mile in making both us and our dogs feel comfortable. We appreciate her and plan to use again if all goes accordingly with our next trip near the area! :)”
