“We were on vacation with our puppy and needed a sitter. Kyle & Kaleigh were absolutely the best! Fritz had a terrific day hanging out with them at their house. He played all day with their dog, Izzy. They provided an update and even sent a video. I would highly recommend them! Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”
“Elisabeth was the absolute best! Lots of pictures and great communication- my doggo had the biggest smile in every picture and video. She was very gracious accommodating my last minute request and my doggo was so happy at pick up. We will definitely be booking again with her!”
“My very active and attention loving dog could NOT have been in better hands!! Fantastic communication and updates. Laney accommodated fluid plans like it was easy peasey. THANK YOU!!!”
“Our two dogs were very comfortable and happy there. One of our dogs has a lot of anxiety and does not like many people at all. She was very happy with Spencer and Emily. they obviously really love dogs! We highly recommend them!”
“Emily and Kieran were the best dog watchers! Their dog Leon is so chill and playful with our pup, Roscoe. They did two walks a day and outdoor play was easy with a doggy door. We received daily updates. So grateful to have Roscoe in good hands while we were away.”
“Really excellent place, a home kennel with a large outdoor area for dogs to run. She is very knowledgeable and great with all the dogs. My delicate little 145 lb flower Great Dane was a huge weenie when he got there and she had no issues getting him in and getting him to try to be comfortable. She sent videos and updates daily and was always quick to respond. I would definitely book again!!”

“This was our second weekend with Anne for our 6 month old Kodi. Once again, Anne did a fabulous job and provided plenty of canine pals for our pup to play with. Our pup is a very energetic and determined youngster and Anne handled her extremely well. It was an enormously successful weekend and I highly encourage you to have your pups stay with Anne.”
“Briana was so wonderful - she helped us out with a last minute boarding need, and she sent daily updates and pictures of our pup. He had a wonderful time at her home, and we would gladly contact Briana for future stays!”
“Kathleen made the process of booking easy and was very accommodating when I needed to modify the reservation slightly. She offered to do a meet and greet with my dog before the drop off. All went smoothly during the two-night stay. I am grateful for the care she provided.”
“We feel like our pup is staying with his extended family when he’s with Marna. He pushes right into her house and doesn’t give us another thought, he’s so happy there. ❤️”
“Kellie was absolutely wonderful with Barley! He has separation anxiety, so we’re always a little nervous leaving him, but Kellie put us completely at ease. She was so sweet and attentive with him, she even took him to the pet store and got him bones and toys to keep him happy. You can tell she and her husband genuinely love love love dogs; their home was beautiful and clearly set up for dogs to feel comfortable and cared for. Thanks to Kellie, we got to actually relax on our trip knowing Barley was in the best hands. Highly, highly recommend her. we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Lauren is a 10/10 sitter! We had our year old pup stay with her for a weekend and will definitely be reaching out to her in the future. She sent photos of updates which showed our pup settling in comfortably, which we appreciated being first-time pet owners. Great to communicate with, and very accommodating!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saco
Katie was amazing with our dog Blu! He was such a happy guy at pick-up time and all of her updates reflected how much he enjoyed her and her home. She was always very responsive and friendly - and kindly made zero fuss when we had to push our pick-up window back several hours due to a 5 hour flight delay. It made an already stressful day a little more manageable. Definitely recommend her to any prospective clients!!
Another great stay for Coco! We had to make quick arrangements due to a family emergency and Emily was so accommodating to our drop off and pick up needs! Coco always gets the best treatment, which puts our minds at ease. We are so lucky to have found Emily and Spencer. Highly recommend!!
