Pam is an extraordinary dog sitter! Your dogs will be loved and admired and well taken care of by Pam the entire time. Her home is beautiful and full of toys and all amenities you need for your dog. She also has a lovely fenced in yard that our dogs loved running around in. She sends pictures and updates and is easy to communicate with. I will definitely reach out to her again the next time I’m out of town! Thanks Pam!!!

Kim was great and worked with us in very short notice so we could help our church assist during a disaster recovery in our state. Her responses were very quick, agreed and said watching Koda was no problem and all the times were good. We even got some cute pictures as Koda settled in. Second time he's stayed with her, and we'll definitely keep her in mind in the future.

Dominic was great with Jazzy. We had a emergency room visit a couple days before drop off and I was kind of worried, but she was in great care. Her wound is almost completely healed, like nothing ever happened. Dominic also administered her antibiotic medicine as well. Jazzy also made two new friends Pepper and Parsley. Dominic was also great with sending updates and pictures of Jazzy during the visit. If you decide to give Dominic a try you won't be disappointed and the dogs will love the backyard, plenty of room to run and frolic and it's fenced in.

Took a last minute booking after our scheduled boarder decided that our dog was too much. Our dog had no issues with her at all. She saved us from being in a bad position and handled our dog who doesn't like being without us without issue for five days.

Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.

Joanne is incredible! I had to travel outside the country with no internet access. Even though it was my dog's first stay with her, I was completely at ease. She reads dogs very well and knows how to ensure that all of the furry guests are safe and happy. Such wonderful pictures and emails awaited our return along with a happy dog!!!

Tracy always takes the best care of our doodles. They love going to her house with Ranger literally pulling me toward her door once we got out of the car. Arya loves all of the love and attention and Ranger deeply appreciates the play time. We always know our dogs are well loved when we are away.

I had a bad experience with a previous rover sitter so I was so reluctant to leave my baby but Casey eased all of that! She was extremely attentive with our baby. To the point where she will be my go to whenever I'm in the area and she is available. She was kind, very responsive and really eased all of my concerns. Thank you again for caring for our baby especially during our time of need!

About: Hi there!!! I have over 20 years of experience owning, loving, and training dogs of all shapes and sizes!! I am currently raising a Great Dane puppy, but I love the little guys too!!

Mitzi and her family are fantastic! We have a very temperamental schnoodle that loves Mitzi and her kiddos because they are very gentle and allow her time to adjust and do things on her own terms. We also have a Pomeranian that loves everyone and feels at home here too. This literally is our dogs’ second family.

Again, feeling so lucky today that we found this sweet couple to care for our dog. After two separate day stays and an overnight stay, we’re convinced that they are dog whisperers and dogs immediately feel their love. Thanking them for easing the worry that comes with leaving your dog in someone else’s care. We feel extremely comfortable leaving our dog with them.

Jennifer was there in our time of need. We had a new puppy that we tried to board overnight at a kennel. That totally back fired and the separation anxiety so severe that our puppy ended up with colitis. This was the week of a big trip we had planned. I had a 4 1/2 month old puppy that needed antibiotics twice a day and lots of attention! Well Jennifer did that and more! She took great care of our little Mac with daily updates! We were able to enjoy our trip without a worry! We will definitely be using her services again!

I was so happy with Joselyn and her care for my dog, Pluto. She was incredibly attentive, sending pictures and updates throughout the day, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Pluto seemed to really enjoy his walks and playtime with Joselyn, and I came home to a happy and relaxed pup.
