“This was my first time using Rover, Karma was a fantastic choice as she was able to put my wife and I at ease while we traveled. Her quick responses and phenomenal photos made it easy to relax. She also has a massive backyard which allowed our two Goldendoodles to get as much exercise as they needed. Thank you for watching my puppies with such care and love!”

About: My name is Alice! I have over 7 years of dog grooming experience and absolutely love what I do. I recently switched to mobile grooming so I always have my shop at home. I have experience with all sorts of pet related challenges, such as elderly dogs, young pups, and a wide variety of health conditions. I currently have no pets of my own and am looking to find more ways to help people get the best care for their pets!! I’m currently working full time, but I am always on the go and am able to make one or two day time stops for potty breaks in between my clients. On weekends I am off work all day. During the winter time my boyfriend plows so he is mostly home as well. I live with my boyfriend who is also a huge animal lover. Between the two of us we have lots of love to offer your pup! We enjoy walks near the house and cuddles on the couch in the evening.
“Riya is the best. Barkley felt instantly comfortable with her and her pup, Archie. She was so kind to help us on short notice. She took great care of Barkley, sent photos, and gave us the perfect amount of communication. Highly recommend her and will definitely connect with her again!”
“Our 1.5 year old Golden has stated with Keeley 3 or 4 times and has always had a great time playing with her dogs. It puts us at ease while on vacation knowing that our dog is being looked after and having fun. Will continue to use Keeley for the foreseeable future”
“Marcus was great with Muffin. I got periodic updates with pictures which was comforting. This was Muffin’s first time at Marcus’ and I have already rebooked. Thanks Marcus.”
“Gracias Julien por cuidar de Ashley, ella se ve feliz!! Buena comunicación pero nunca recibí una fotografía de mi perrita en los 4 días que estuvo contigo, puede ser algo en el sistema…en general muy bien cuidada, Ashley está feliz.”
“Great experience overall. This was my first time leaving my dogs with anyone. Melissa and Matt were very good with them and kept in contact with me for updates and photos. Will definitely book again!”
“Shannon and Robert were absolutely wonderful! Their family is so kind, and their children were great with Henry. He settled in right away and honestly didn’t seem like he wanted to leave when we picked him up. They kept him active all day, so he came home happy and completely worn out (in the best way!). We’d absolutely trust them with Henry again and look forward to booking with them in the future.”
“He was flexible, super communicative, and sent the best photos and videos. I could tell our pup was in better hands than even the best overnight Stay facilities we’ve used.”
“Freddie had another great stay with Alex! Alex always makes us feel at ease leaving our pup with him by sending videos and photos every day. Freddie loves playing with Zana and Cocoa, and is always happy to see them all when we pull up. Thanks for having fun with Freddie this week, Alex!”
“Eric and Polly are fantastic! They are so caring and Colby loves spending time there! We can go on vacation knowing that he feels at home and that he is in a safe and loving environment.”

Lana and her daughters did a great job with Penny and I was able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was well taken care of. Penny is a senior dog who has slowed down a lot this year so having a comfortable home with constant human company is all she wants. Lana’s home has a few other animals that Penny adjusted to quickly and I loved hearing how chill she was with the chickens. Lana was responsive and good at communicating how things were going so I was relieved everyone was doing well. I look forward to working with her again!
Travis was great with my dogs. Our Flight back was delayed. He was very understanding of the situation and thoughtful. My dogs seemed to have had a great time with him, they were great spirts and excited when I arrived. This is my second time using Travis and I will definitely use him again.
she always does such a great job and is so amazing about keeping you in the loop and updated, i was away for about 11 days and i have a puppy and a senior pup and her and Colt (her pup) were such amazing sitters and were so great with both of my pups for the long stay 🐾 🦴 💜
