Racell was just the best. My long-time and regular boarder/daycare sitter became unavailable unexpectedly and Racell was willing to take my little guy on fairly short notice. She provided updates and I could tell that my pup felt very safe and secure with her and her. He is 16 years old, so it was comforting to me to know he was relaxed and comfortable with her and her family. He will be back!

Chris really did me a solid taking Marshall in for the weekend. He was always in communication, sent a few pictures during each day, and managed to keep on top of my boy’s endless energy. When I picked him up, my dog was trying to get me to stay there, which I take as a great sign for how much he enjoyed his stay with Chris.

I had a fantastic experience with Maiken! She took care of my Australian Cattle Dog on very short notice, and everything went smoothly. We met early in the morning so my dog could meet her and her dogs, and everyone got along wonderfully. That evening, I dropped my dog off, and Maiken was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Her dogs were super friendly as well, which helped my dog feel at ease. Throughout the stay, she sent me pictures and videos and was super responsive, which gave me peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog overnight with someone on Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I will definitely be using Maiken again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

She has experience with smaller breeds as well as seniors, so I knew my pups were in good hands. They had their frequent potty breaks, other little friends to chill with, and anything they needed. Especially all the cuddles and love. Thanks again Tiffany!
