Adrian provided fantastic care for our dogs. We received regular updates and he reached out for information he needed to make their stay worry free. Our dogs were well cared for and we joked that they seemed to love being with Adrian and his family so much that they may not want to come back home! 😆 We would definitely use Adrian again and will recommend him to anyone looking for boarding/walks/drop in services.

We came all the way from Baltimore to visit friends in the area, and had to board Willow. It was Willow's first time spending the night away from us since we got her 4 months ago. Tracy was super kind and loving toward our anxious 7YO doggie. She sent photos and was watchful enough to notice some behaviors of Willow's that seemed to possibly indicate a health problem (it resolved itself). We felt Willow was getting the best possible care next to our own. We will definitely use Tracy again next time we come to visit Athens County! Thanks Tracy!

Wendy took great care of my dogs while I was on vacation. They stayed in her home, went on walks, and snuggled on the couch. It was nice to know they were being so well cared for while I was away. She is the best!

Madison and her sister were so great with our boys! Great back yard and we loved all the picture updates! No doubt in our minds that they were very loved and taken care of during our week vacation. So happy our boys now have a ‘home away from home’ :)

Will be using Dana again. Our 4 year old German Shepherd had a blast there with Dana’s family and other dogs. She responds quickly to messages and sends plenty of pictures. Would recommend to anyone.

About: I love animals and to take care of them. I hope to provide your pets with a caring, safe, cuddling place to come. I’ve had animals since I was very little and have always loved them, I plan to be a vet tech when I can. I also have two dogs a chihuahua and an American bulldog that are both neutered. They are both very friendly as well and most of the time the chihuahua minds his own business. (By the way they are both male dogs). My whole family loves animals and would love for your to come stay or visit and even walks would be great. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room for dogs to run in and much more. I work part time so I have time to take care of your pups! If I’m not home my boyfriend is, we have two pups that go everywhere with us I have a fenced in yard and I go on daily walks with my two pups that can help keep yours company. I have neighbors that are are very friendly and there dog had puppies!

About: Hi I’m Zoë! I love all animals, big and small and have been around them my whole life. >I have owned many different types of animals: dogs, cats, fish, a ferret, guinea pigs, a hedgehog, ect... >I have experience with a spectrum of ages, sizes, and breeds of dogs. I am good with puppies in training, as well as senior dogs who need accommodations. >Right now I have a dog (Bailey, 3), a farm cat, a fish, and also a flock of ducks. >I also offer yard clean up services and homemade dogfood! >I have been working for Rover since 2023 after I graduated from OSU >I moved to Fairfield County in 2024 I currently work part time at a greenhouse and run my own business. Most of my days are very flexible and I am open to new short and long term clients! On Visits: I’m down stop in and visit your dog, or take them out on a walk in the yard or neighborhood. Feeding, playing, walking, trick training, giving medicine, and having hang time are all in my comfort zone. I can follow specific directions and trust my gut instincts. I love all dogs, big and small. They all have different personalities and I like to take my time to learn a dog and their preferences and tendencies. I always bring a treat with me on meet and greets if allowed, and I understand dog behavior enough to interpret their mood. For Dog Boarding: At my house, we have baby gates to separate the floors of the house, the cat stays upstairs most of the time. I like to have dogs meet on leashes or through a gate, I never leave unfamiliar dogs alone together, and my house is very dog friendly, with hardwood and linoleum and not much floor clutter. Outside, my dog is off leash trained (I know I am spoiled), but all other dogs I keep on a leash if we are outside or on an 100ft rope when we take walks through the field.

About: I’ve lived my entire life with dogs and I couldn’t imagine living a life without one. I’ve own various breeds and I’m a huge lover of all dogs. I have a house with a big fenced in back yard for your dog to roam, run, and play. I’m looking forward to meeting your fur baby and treating it with love and care. I currently have 3 dogs of my own so multiple dogs are not an issue. I also work from home full time so there will always be somebody around. Hope you can trust me with your furry friends! I work from home full time so I’m always home caring for my 3 dogs. On a nice day you can even catch me sitting out back while I work and the dogs enjoy the fenced in back yard. I have a big fenced in back yard and 3 dogs of my own that I care for daily. My dogs are allowed on the couch and bed for extra cuddles and love.
