“Jimmy was at Richard's during the week of Christmas and seemed like he had a great time with him and his pack of dogs. Richard was kind, accommodating and sent pictures and videos regularly. His house has a huge yard for the pups to run around in. When I got back Jimmy was a happy, healthy and tired pup. Will surely recommend Richard and his pack to others looking for a safe and fun place to board their dogs.”
“Our labradoodle Leo had a great time at Maria’s. We appreciated the care she took in acclimating him to a new environment and the updates with pictures! We would absolutely use Maria again!”
“Kathleen was an amazing sitter. She took thorough notes on our meet and greet and sent lots of pictures and videos while I was away. This helped to assure me that my dogs were happy and being well taken care of. I highly recommend her.”
“100% recommend this kennel, Vanessa is great! Daily pictures and videos were sent to me of my puppy playing and going on walks. Was a vacation for my pup while we were on ours, Vanessa goes above and beyond”
“Our dog loves going to Emily & Patrick's! He started wagging his tail the moment we got there this last time. It makes vacation so relaxing to know he is so happy and well cared for at their place.”
“This was my first time using Rover for an extended stay (2 weeks) and Amy was great! She sent pictures everyday and updates of mango playing with the other dogs. I appreciate that Amy does a meet and greet and requires vaccinations ahead of time. She was also quite responsive to my texts!”
“Stacey did great with our Belle! Her home and surrounding areas were just what we wanted for our dog when we were away. With an extended time away, possible changes in travel because of weather and being the crazy pet parents we are, Stacy was flexible, easy going and sent us sweet pictures of Belle! We would highly recommend and hope to work with her again.”
“Michael was great every step of the way! My dog came back home I’m great spirits and had to rest from all the play time he got with Michael and the other dogs. I highly recommend!”
“Jessica did a fantastic job watching our puppy. Jessica sent regular updates with pictures and they were very detailed.I felt my dog was in great hands. They went above and beyond to ensure my dog’s safety. It really gave me peace of mind.”

“Great communication, easy drop off and pick up, affordable rate, and our dog seemed very happy and comfortable to be. I think our dog loved pal’ing around with Chang’s friendly pup Valley because she came home completely tired out. Would definitely recommend and rebook.”
“Devin and Tim were awesome with my pup, Charley! Excellent communication, accommodating of my pups schedules and needs, and sent pictures and videos while she was with them. I would highly recommend using them!”

“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”
“As usual Pam was great with Andie. Andie seems very comfortable going with Pam when we drop her off always a good sign that the sitter is doing a great job bonding with the dog.”
“My dog Mac just spent 10 days with Aaron and I think he was actually a little sad to leave. He made quick friends with Aaron's dog boomer and I loved the videos of the two of them playing. Aaron was great at keeping us updated and I would definitely recommend him to a friend.”
About: I've had pets my entire life and have always had a soft spot for animals. I worked at a pet boarding facility for 6 years, sometimes caring for 100+ dogs and cats. I raised my sweet pittie from 5 weeks to 15 years and am well-versed in senior care, meds, and couch snuggles. My schedule is entirely flexible. I am available day and night, 7 days a week, typically including holidays, for full-time attentive care and lots of 1-on-1 attention. I know how stressful being away from their humans can be, so I strive to maintain your pet's normal routine as much as possible. All dogs must be crate-trained, though they will only be crated if I have to leave the house (which is rare to never) or if that's where they typically sleep at home. They will have full run of the first floor with my constant supervision, are allowed on the couch, and are welcome to sleep in the bed (if their size allows) or in my room in their own bed if that's what they prefer. We'll play inside, go on leashed walks, or just lounge-whatever your pet likes best. Potty breaks are on-leash and can be at scheduled times or just whenever they ask.
“Awesome experience having our puppy, Indy, stay with Trent and Devon! They took great care of Indy and shared lots of photos and updates during our trip. They have great communication and successfully wore out our puppy with play time and walks. We highly recommend Trent and Devon!”
“Willow's second stay with Ruth was a success! Willow immediately went to her to say hello when we arrived, so she remembered her favorably, and when we were leaving Willow went to her to say goodbye. Willow loves staying with Ruth!”

Ashley M.
“Ashley is one of those people dogs instantly trust—and it’s easy to see why. She grew up with dogs and has cared for plenty over the years, so she knows how to read their body language, spot what they need, and keep things calm, playful, or cozy depending on the moment. She’s also the kind of person who laughs at their weird little quirks and antics genuinely enjoys their company, knowing that they have life figured out better than humans. When she spent time with my dog Max, he loved her right away—happy, relaxed, and totally himself. Any pup would be lucky to spend time with her!”
