1. Kim T.


“Kim and Jeff did a wonderful job with my dog Charlie during his week stay at their place. He was welcomed into their dog pack, and the pictures they sent showed him having a fantastic time. I got frequent, funny updates and pictures, which put my mind at ease. Jeff trained Charlie with Charlie's reactiveness on the leash, and gave me some tips on how to help Charlie with this. Charlie came home happy and tired, a good sign! Would highly recommend Kim and Jeff and I will definitely be using their services again!”


2. Lee J.

“I don't know what magic Lee did, but our food loving, pig-disguised-as-a-dog pet stayed in her bed during dinner time instead of begging at the table like she usually does. Bubbles had a great time!”


3. Chawntea P.


“There’s no place like home but this is the closest place to it. Wonderful, warm, loving and caring home by a wonderful, loving and caring person. And her dear sweet mother too! 5 stars all around. I had to find a sitter on extreme short notice and I was so thrilled that Chawntea was willing to accept my pup with less than 12 hours notice and for a 13 day stay while I was out of the country. My pampered pooch was treated like her own and I honestly think she may have came back more spoiled than when I left her and after that much time away it was a wonderful feeling knowing she was cared for so well. She even gave her a bath! Definitely will be a repeat customer and looking forward to future play dates w/ Bailey. Thank you so much!”


4. Erika P.

“Erika was so wonderful with Oliver! It was so nice to get pictures while we were on vacation! He had a blast and has so much fun with her! We will definitely book with Erika again! We thank you!”


5. Suzanne E.

“Suzanne took excellent care of my two dogs. She provided daily updates/photos, which was really great and help to keep my mind at ease. She was very easy to communicated with, and I would highly recommend her without reservation.”


6. Chad A.


“I was in desperate need of a dog sitter for my puppy Shelby before a work trip and Chad really came through. I instantly felt comfortable leaving Shelby with him and his family. Shelby and his Pom became instant friends as Chad sent me pictures of them snuggling together.”


7. Laura O.
“Laura has been an amazing caregiver for my dog, Reese, time and time again. I’ve hired her multiple times during holidays and work trips, and she always exceeds my expectations. Reese feels comfortable, happy, and completely trusts her. I’m usually nervous about leaving my dog with strangers or at dog hotels, but Laura provides the perfect solution by staying at my home so Reese can remain in his own familiar space. It’s never easy to be away from my dog for an extended period, but knowing Laura’s dedication and love for dogs gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend her!”


8. Eleanna V.

“Eleanna was amazing! Her home is super quiet and cozy, perfect for our anxious dog. The homes yard is perfect as a play area as well. Eleanna herself has a very calming presence that immediately made our dog comfortable and at ease in a new environment. She provided constant updates that put us at ease as well, knowing our dog was in good hands and having a good time while we were away. Highly recommend and will be booking her again!”


9. Zo H.

“Zo made our pup Kobe’s first weekend away from us an enjoyable experience! He had tons of fun running around and playing with her super friendly frenchie Bruno! If your pup has a specific eating/sleep schedule or allergies, she will be sure to accommodate. We also got daily pictures and videos throughout the weekend! Kobe came back to us at the end of the weekend happy and tired, we will definitely be using her for daycare and boarding services in the future!”




10. Jeff & Beth K.

“Jeff and Beth took great care of Riley. They spent a lot of time playing with her and treated her just like part of their family. Riley had a wonderful time and I felt very comfortable leaving her in such capable hands.”


11. Nicola & Michael A.

“Nicola was in great communication with me and shared a lot of photos while I was away. This was the first time I've left my dog with the family. They were all incredibly patient with a dog who requires it. I would definitely book with them again. Thank you!”




12. Natalie & Matthew W.

“Once again our dogs enjoyed their dogcation with Natalie and Matthew. We love the updates we get about their vacation while we're on ours. It's so easy to relax knowing the pups are in such great hands and loved so well.”


13. Danielle M.

“Danielle was awesome! I would highly recommend. This was ours and Chili’s first Rover experience and it went exceptionally well. He loved Danielle and her dogs. He got comfortable very quickly and seemed so happy on hikes with the other dogs. We got tons of updates and photos of chili at doggy camp. Danielle is so experienced and even had recommendations for us on how to train his reactivity.”


14. Hy & Arlo K.

“Great care of our sweet little old lady. We decided last minute to not take Lily with us to LA. Hy & Arlo thankfully had availability. What a score!!! Quick response & able to meet us before the stay. Sent great pictures of Lily daily. So grateful for their care!”


15. Osaze R.

“We appreciated the photos and updates Osaze sent us regarding our Annie. She appeared comfortable with Osaze, and we’ll certainly ask him to take care of her again.”


16. Megan K.

“I cannot say enough good things about Megan! She watched our pup for us while we’d were out of town for 4 nights. She was so amazing with updates and pictures. I could tell our pup had a great time and felt comfortable. Will definitely book again! :)”


17. Kelly L.


“Kelly was patient, thoughtful, and attentive with my corgi puppy. He had some tummy and marking issues, and she managed it all with grace. Kelly provided detailed updates and communicated regularly which was appreciated. Will hire again!”


18. Sara B.


“Sara met with my pup for a few hours before we booked a 3bday boarding. She was available last minute and really helped me feel comfortable booking her for boarding. She takes the pups out regularly on walks and send lots of pics. My pup came back with less anxiety than he started with. Thank you !!”


19. Teetouch P.

“I recommend Tee to take care of anyone's dog! He is very professional and very responsive about my concerns to ensure Ollie was comfortable. Every day he would send wonderful pictures and videos of our dog playing with other pups and spending time with his family. The only issue we had was our dog did gain weight and was overfed more than the amount that was defined in the details we sent. We did discuss that the next time, he would feed the correct portions. Overall, I strongly recommend him for boarding. Tee and his family truly gave him lots of love and care making sure he kept up with his basic training. They cuddled with him, ran with him, bathed him, and gave him plenty of playtime with all his dog friends. No doubt, your dog will come back very happy because Tee will definitely take great care of your dog.”


20. Alexandra O.

“Hi Alex! I just wanted to say a huge thank you for looking after our Luna once again. Your care means the world to us, and we really appreciate all the love you give her!”
