“Bailey had such a fun day! She was nervous at first but they were very patient with her and she ended up having so much fun with their dogs. She came home absolutely pooped. They seem to take this very seriously and seem to really care about their dogs. Very responsive as well. I would absolutely use them again”
2. Leah S.
“Leah is such a gift!! She took on Vinny at the last minute, and took such great care of him! I received several pictures, and he looked like he was having a great time. He's usually not so photogenic! I know whenever I go to Muncie again, Leah will be my first call!”
3. Monika A.
“Forrest just loves going to see Monika and her little sweetie Kimmie. It sure is nice to have some one you can count on and know you baby is going to be taken care of and loved.”

5. Lynana V.
“Lynana and her family are so great! So attentive, fun, and communicative. She sent me photos of my dog during her daycare stay with them. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her in the future again for daycare as well as boarding.”
6. Savannah L.
“Savannah is always wonderful and my puppy loves coming to see her!”
7. Gabriel B.
“We are very thankful with Gabriel for accepting taking care of our Peanut, and understanding how we feel when we can't be with her, we appreciate the pictures and videos a lot, we see how he cares for her and definitely we recommend him to any pup owners. He is very caring and patient, dachshunds are known for being very particular, he understands her dynamics and kept her calm and happy. We're very fortunate that we found Gabriel. Thanks to Rover too for having people who love what they do and are so caring and professional.”
8. Kelsie L.
“Kelsie is amazing! Her pup Maryn is great at play and I had no concerns about my pups safety or care at their home. Kelsie is very responsible, kind and attentive and my pup has her best Rover experience here! Highly recommend!”
9. Haylie H.
About: I have cared for many different breeds of dogs. Whether that be just feeding, to training and grooming. I have had my personal pets for over 10 years. I have a very open schedule and I am open most of the time. I could fulfill a full or part-time schedule for any owners in need. I have a fenced in yard. My dogs eat off a feeding schedule. I have also potty trained all of my dogs. I bathe my dogs once a week as well to keep them not matted and promote hair and skin health.
10. Steven H.
About: I'm a work from home dog owner with the time, energy and motivation to help out with most dog needs. My dog Nubi and I enjoy getting out for multiple walks a day (regardless of the type of weather). We know how tough it is to stay motivated when the mercury hits 80+ or there's a couple feet of snow on the ground. Walking always sets the tails wagging. I have experience walking multiple dogs simultaneously. Additionally, having plenty of time at home means we've got the opportunity for every dog friend to come by and have some fun. Whether it is hide and seek with treats or toys, tennis ball time or just a chance to catch some Zzz's in the A/C, we always have a good time. Not everyone can go-go-go all the time so it's good to balance the activity with recovery. I'm mindful that the dogs in my care do not escape on walks or in the transition from between the house and outside. There are plenty of rooms in my home if my dog or your dog needs to be separated for cool down periods or feeding time. My availability is pretty much "all the time". There are no kids in my home so no worries that your pet will be stressed by an unsupervised child. Additionally, I have a roommate that works from home and is available for additional supervision. He is a part-time semi professional photographer so you can expect a high quality shot or two of your pup. I excel with the care for dogs at all ages and with all levels of separation anxiety as well as with long term boarding needs. I also have a spare Airtag that I attach to your pet as a final, emergency "what if" backup to keep your dog safe. Nubi and I take three regular walks a day (once in the morning, then at lunch and again before dinner time). My days are clear for potty breaks, mini-walks, around the block trips to drain energy or around the neighborhood excursions for high energy dogs. I do not have a fenced yard but I am diligent about going on walks. In my home there is always time for play and cool down and naps as well.

“Highly recommend...my dog loves going to her house!”
12. Nicholas J.
“Nick is a dear friend of me and my girlfriends of almost 4 years. Our Great Dane Moose is always welcomed in Nick’s home as he enjoys the company of about any size dog. I really appreciate how proactive Nick is with walking and keeping Moose on his eating schedule. If given permission, Nick uses his guest bathroom as a pet wash to clean Moose when we are needing him to watch him for more than a week. Rest assure your furry friend will be in good hands with Dog dad, Nick.”
13. Zoe B.
“Zoe is great with my 2 dogs (Shih Tzu and Belgian Malinois). She makes sure my 2 yr old Malinois gets plenty of exercise, taking him for long walks and throwing the ball for what seems like hours. He is a very strong puppy and she is able to control him very well during walks. At the same she manages to give my very lazy Shih Tzu tons of love and attention.”
14. Casey W.
“learned about day care day before I needed it and Casey responded quickly and agreed. She was attentive to my dogs individual needs. She kindly pottied them just before pickup, knowing I would be traveling. I would use her again”
15. Holly S.
“Holly was extremely professional and punctual! She is a loving and caring owner of a rottweiler, so she's very capable of handling large dog breeds! She really loves small dogs though and her favorite dog is huskies! As we were talking I quickly realized that she was perfect to dog sit my German shepherd max!”
16. Dawn C.
“Dawn has been a pet owner for all the many, many years that I have known her, and she has always given her fur babies the best possible loving care. I would consider her an expert with different breeds, as she has had a number of different breeds over the years, as well as different types of pets, and has somehow managed to create a harmonious environment with no clashes. Her pets only crossed the “Rainbow Bridge” after she had given them a long and happy life, and never once allowed any harm or neglect to come to any of them. I just became a pet owner, and if I needed a caregiver for my fur babies, I know she would provide a safe and happier environment than anyone else.”
17. Dragana V.
“Wow, Deagana was terrific! From the moment I met her, she put me at ease since this was my first time using a service like this. She's just the sweetest person—so patient and super responsive. She was on time and kept me in the loop with many pictures and videos, which I appreciated. She cared for my two dogs as if they were hers, and I couldn't be more grateful! Thank you, Dragana! You’re the best!”

19. Samantha N.
“Samantha and her husband did a great job while Becket was at their house today in doggy daycare. She kept us updated with pictures throughout the day and gave us a summary of his day at the end (eating, potty habits, etc) . Our dog loved playing i their big backyard with their dog, Marci. Just what we wanted was a worn out puppy at the end of the day! He enjoyed it so much! We have already booked another date.”
20. Kayla I.
“Kayla loves animals! Her attention to detail is second to none. She boards my two whippets - Gemma and Snoopy. They love the farm life and taking in all the new scents and views. They quickly make themselves at home. Snoopy requires special medication at times and that is not a problem for Kayla. I have no worries when she is watching my babies.”
