“I needed a last minute one night boarding for my VERY active 1 year old pup. She was very fast to reply to my messages during the entire process and Cooper came home exhausted which tells me he had a blast there!”
“Laura watched my four year old foxhound, Piper over Spring Break. Piper was homesick at first but Laura took special care to help her get adjusted. (She sent me pictures of my 45 lb dog sitting on her lap!) Laura was very communicative sending daily texts, photos, and videos. Piper looked so cute in her St. Patty’s Day scarf she provided. The dogs were very relaxed and were having a good time. Also, her house is away from a busy road for dog walk safety. Laura even made the extra effort to wash Piper’s dog bed before she went home. I highly recommend Laura! She is very caring and attentive.”
“Yekaterina was amazing! She was so warm and welcoming, and I immediately felt that my Coco was in good hands. She was attentive to Coco’s needs while I was away, which gave me complete peace of mind. Coco absolutely loves her, and we’ll definitely be seeing her again soon!”
“I had to get Em help to take care of Goldie for few days on an urgent basis to take care of preparation doe the upcoming event. Em agreed to even though it was a real short notice. I had to extend Goldie’s stay fro few more days in 2 increments she was able to accommodate my request and was willing to on a short notice. Goldie loved staying at Em’s place. We are super happy with the love, care and attention Goldie gets at Wm’s place. The whole family loves and cares for the pets. I highly recommend Em’s pet related sitting, boarding and other services she provides. We would have given a dozen stars if there was an option to do so. All-in-all a wonderful & amazing person & petsitter.”
“Toni was awesome with my kitty Jax!! She was extremely sweet and patient with him as he has only had negative experiences in the past with boarding. If you want your pet to be safe,comfortable and loved by someone other than yourself then look no further!! The updates she sends are top notch!! I can not express my gratitude for her service!!”
“As a Rover sitter it is hard to find another sitter who is up to my high standards but...Cynthia was amazing!! As soon as we met her we felt extremely welcomed. She's probably the only sitter who I hired who followed my instructions exactly and I had absolutely zero worry about my pups. She sent us plenty of pictures and her love her for my dogs was very obvious. At her current rates at time of booking she was an absolute bargain. I can't recommend her enough! She is absolutely a dog lover!! I'm going to send her my clients if I'm unavailable and I trust she will give them the same love. Thank you so much Cynthia!! ❤️🐕❤️🐕❤️🐕”
“Clarissa is amazing! Great communication and even sent pictures during our time away! My crazy pup came home exhausted! She even taught her how to sleep without being in a crate or in the bed with us and she is doing well not messing in the house when we are resting! I am so grateful! We booked again and will continue to book every trip we can with her and her amazing family!”
“I just wanted to say thanks a bunch for taking care of Heihei. He absolutely loves you and your sons. It’s such a blessing that your sons are home and getting to play with Heihei.”

We constantly got picture updates of the pups and I was just happy to see that they were happy as well. They definitely got a lot of love while we were gone. Thank you guys so much.”
“We are extremely happy with Lua's stay at Katelyn. We were out of the country and felt that Lua was in great hands. We received pictures everyday and Lua always seemed happy. She interacted with other dogs and enjoyed her stay. Thank you Katelyn, it is great to know we have someone we can trust nearby.”
“Meredith had a great stay with Sherrie and her husband! She came back happy and tired (which is a good thing and means they got out her energy). Sherrie sent photos and was very understanding when our evening flight got delayed.”
“Maria was outstanding! She gave us updates on our dogs, and sent pictures. Love their backyard and thier dogs are great! I have no concerns leaving them with Maria and I will defiantly use her services again!”
“Shera absolutely spoiled my dog Ollie during his stay with her. You can truly tell she cares about the pets she sits, and really appreciate her asking questions to ensure mine and Ollies comfort levels throughout the weekend. I highly recommend her and Ollie can’t wait to have another reason to have her as a sitter!”

“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my dog! From the moment I dropped her off, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. Karianna sent regular updates, photos, and videos, which made me feel connected the entire time I was away. My dog came back happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend herto anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Brook kept my Lucy for 6 nights, I am very happy with her service. She sent multiple pictures of Lucy during her time there ensuring she was having a good time.This was the first time ever using a pet sitting service as I’ve always been skeptical of leaving her with strangers. I feel like Lucy fit right in with Brooks family and will definitely use her services again. Our vacation was so much more relaxed without the stress of traveling with a dog. Thanks Brook and family for taking such good care of Lucy”
