“Jenny was great with the pups and very accommodating to us for drop off and pick up times. She gave us daily updates multiple times a day letting us know how the dogs were doing. Highly recommend and we will be coming back!”
“What can I say, Miss Candice loves what she does. And it shows, It’s like home away from for my fur baby who all but jumps out the car window when we pull up for his stay. Thank goodness my window was up. Total opposite when pull up to the groomer.”
“We've used Barbra twice now and she's been just wonderful with our anxious, timid dog. She's excellent with communication and providing photo updates. I can tell Charlie enjoys his time there and I would highly recommend her!”
“Jen’s the best! Highly recommended her services. It’s a great sign when Piper is super excited when we pull up and doesn’t wanna leave. I know she is in good hands and having a blast!”
“Peanut was warm, safe, amused, cuddled, and adored during her stay at Myra's. Myra took time to play with her, allowed Peanut to snuggle up in her blanket and sit on her lap. Peanut and Myra became true friends. I will gladly use Myra again.”
“Jill and Thomas was amazing and so kind! They treated Kobie like their own and took great care of him. They were in constant with me throughout my trip and sent me many photos!! I would 100% board with them again.”
“Rackeem was awesome with my dogs while I was on vacation! He took excellent care of my fur babies and I highly recommend him! He provides daily updates and pictures so you can be assured your pets are safe and doing well while in his care. He's also a great trainer as well! He helped my very active 14 month old pup 🐶 stop pulling so much while on our walks.”
“Summer had a fantastic time with Emily and Banana! Emily was very accommodating to our driving schedule, and sent pics and updates throughout her stay of two nights. Summer will definitely be visiting again!”
About: I grew up on a farm and ranch, caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. While living in South Carolina, I assisted with service dog and obedience training. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I’ve cared for them throughout my entire adult years. I can’t wait to offer your pup a safe, loving environment while you’re away! Usually home all day Sat and Sunday. Mon - Friday I’m gone from about 9am to 12pm. Home for the rest of the day to keep your pups company, aside from life errands that are few and far between. As of right now I want to begin with one client at a time (single client can have multiple dogs), as I get comfortable with the Rover process will open up to more. Thank you. I have a 6 foot privacy fence and the front room is set up for your pup to stay in and there is a XXL crate and for smaller pups I have a large play pen and a canopy bed. I do have three dogs that are friendly, however my house is constructed to where I can keep everyone separated and comfortable.
“Recently left my puppy with Thelma. I was able to go on vacation without concerns for my pups well being. She took extra precautions to keep him safe by putting up extra barricades around her fence to prevent him from escaping. My pup loved playing with her dogs. i definitely will have her watch my dog again.”
“We recently had the pleasure of entrusting Busara with the care of our 9-month-old kitten for five nights, and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From the outset, Busara demonstrated exceptional professionalism and genuine affection for our kitten. Throughout our trip, she kept us consistently informed, sending regular updates and photos that showcased our kitten’s well-being and playful moments. Her attentive communication provided us with peace of mind, knowing our pet was in caring and capable hands. Upon our return, it was evident that our kitten had been well-cared for, appearing content and healthy. Busara’s dedication and attention to detail exceeded our expectations, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter.”
“This is Sphinx 2nd time staying with Nikkita and he ran in the house as if it was home. Communication was excellent during his stay and she was able to accommodate dropping him off at the last minute since we were unable to pick him up. Our previous sitter moved from the area so we are grateful to have found her and our dog seems to love his stays!”
“Amrita took great care of my pup, Hershey, and provided updates and pics to reassure me that he was doing well and enjoying his time with her and her family. I picked up a happy pup so I was pleased with the service provided and would definitely recommend her for your boarding needs and when in the area, I will definitely try to book with her again.”
“This was my first booking with Karen and I am so thankful for her. Karen and her sweet Bella was such a joy during our Meet and Greet! I instantly knew that she would take good care of my baby boy Shaka. Karen was kind, inviting, caring and understanding of my last minute booking and anxiety. She loved on my baby and calmed him down after I had to leave without him. She sent daily updates and pictures which calmed my nerves and warmed my heart. I truly appreciate Karen and I will definitely book her again for my future travels! Shaka and I also fell in love with her precious baby girl Bella! 😍”
“Kara and her husband was great with Iceland, she sent photos and he looked like he had a great time!! Icelands pretty energetic so it was nice to see someone else could handle him lol. 10/10”
“Jilesa is AMAZING !!!! She should be your number one pick! She is intelligent, caring, and incredibly competent. Ready to handle anything you throw at her. We might start scheduling our vacations around her availability!!!”
