“Our baby Buddy is our family. He's our son. We rarely leave him with anyone, but I need you to know that Sarah did an amazing job. She made us feel comfortable, she communicated with us sent photos, videos of our furry love one. She put our mind at ease. Kept us updated on his activities. Job well done. Sarah is a very kind-hearted person. I would definitely utilize her services again and again.”

“What an amazing experience! From start to finish. Updates in between. I could tell picking my dog up that he had such a comfortable time! She did not disappoint! Thanks again! (:”

“Athena was amazing with my pup while I was out of the country. Even though I didn’t have service she sent lots of pictures and videos so that when I could log on I got to see how well he was doing. She was very mindful and knowledgable about dogs that might have “issues” with anxiety, high energy levels, or anything else that may require special care. I am so happy I found her to watch him because I had peace of mind that he was in great hands while I was unreachable.”

“Nathan & Jenna do a fantastic job taking care of my pup every time I'm away! They always give her lots of love and play time, and keep me informed with fun updates and videos ❤️ Highly recommend!”

“Sauddi took care of our three dogs; one husky and two smaller older dogs while we were on a two week vacation. She was extremely attentive, timely, and attended to our dogs. She went way above and beyond with toys and even heated blankets for the older gentleman. I cannot say enough, how amazing she was! I don’t think they missed us at all while we were gone :-) She was very mindful of their well-being and happiness, took them on walks, and sent us pictures every day. Additionally, she also looked after our chickens, and even had to capture a few that didn’t make it in the coop at night! She went beyond full service. I would definitely hire her again and will be disappointed if I can’t get on her schedule next time.”

“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care you provided for my dog, Luna! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. You took the time to understand her personality and needs, which made all the difference. Luna had an absolute blast during her day with you! Thank you once again for giving Luna such a wonderful day. I will definitely be reaching out for future dog-sitting needs, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!”

“Jessica took great are of our dog while we were away. The daily photos she sent showed that Sundance was comfortable in his temporary surroundings, which gave us peace of mind. She has a nice fenced yard where dogs can enjoy outdoors time. She was available for meet/greet and drop off/pick up. All went smoothly!”

“We love using Wyatt to watch our boys. They always come home well cared for and TIRED. He always sends us updates during their stay, is super friendly, and can say he genuinely cares. Definitely recommend boarding with Wyatt. 5/5 stars. Will continue to board with him.”

“Pat just feels like family at this point! We are so thankful for the amazing care she gives our energetic pup! Finnegan just loves her and we are so thankful we don’t have to worry. We were on a 10 day vacation and she provided wonderful updates and never had a worry! Thank you so so much again Pat!!!”

“She was awesome and extra attentive since I was sending my cats off to temporary foster and their stay with her. She kept me updated on their interactions and progress in a new environment. She also sent lots of pics and allowed me the opportunity to watch them through camera footage. She was great!”

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Kim!! She was the perfect fit for my 8yr old Mal-Shi, Ella. She took such good care of my anxious little girl, giving her lots of love & comfort, as well as paying attention to the details of her care. She absolutely treated her like the queen that she is.”

“We had a great experience with Gabrielle! Everything went smoothly and Clover came home happy and well cared for. Gabrielle was so kind, communicative and easy to work with. We really appreciated the updates and attention she gave. Would absolutely book with her again!”

“Absolutely amazing, very friendly and amazing with our 2 dogs. She stepped in when a different rover provider could no longer care for our dogs during our vacation. Elysia sent us many pictures and videos and kept us up to date, putting our mind at ease. We highly recommend her and will be booking again!”

“Kathleen and Nathan took great care of our dog, Ruthie. Lots of pictures and we really felt like they treated her like family. Will definitely ask them to watch Ruthie next time we travel!”

“Jan did an excellent job watching my Yorkie Bichon mix! She was a pleasure to meet and the experience of introducing my dog and getting the arrangement set up went really well. She sent lots of photos and updates during the stay. She helped put me at ease with her level of care and attention to detail regarding the entire stay. I would highly recommend Jan as a dog sitter and I definitely will be going back in the future I’m sure!”

“Danielle and her family are all so kind. Upon meeting Danielle, I instantly felt comfortable leaving our little Ellie there. The home is spotless and the backyard is fenced in. When I picked our dog up she was happy and content. I knew she was well cared for during our absence. Thank you so much Danielle!”

Thank you so much for taking such great care of my German Shepherd Buddy the Doggo while I was on vacation! I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup who clearly felt comfortable and loved, typically when I pick him up he seems stressed and exhausted. But not this time, he was bouncing around happier than I’ve ever seen him. Knowing he was in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind the entire time I was away. You were wonderful—communicative, reliable, and truly awesome with him. Getting the update pics of him on walks and making friends with your dogs was such a relief. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book with you again (and recommend you to anyone looking for a trusted sitter). Thank you again! 🐾

Sarah was wonderful with our super anxious pup and our complicated schedule. We were in Akron for a week (kid's sporting event) so didn't get to meet her before we dropped our dog off, but Sarah spent a lot of time trying to get to know our dynamics and needs over the phone. She was wonderful at "following the dog's lead" in the transition time and finding ways to calm her during the week including calming music, aromoatherapy and lots of treats. We enjoyed the videos (with her narration), photos and texts that she regularly sent and appreciated her transparency, communication, and hard work to ensure that our dog's stay and our comfort was her top priority. Thanks Sarah!

It was Zeus’ first time staying with her, and he had an amazing experience! She gave him lots of belly rubs, let him play with her sweet dogs, and took him on wonderful walks at the park. He even got to swim in the lake, which he absolutely loved! I could tell he was well cared for and had so much fun. I will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾💙

Caitlin was so great with my dog and made her feel at home for the weekend. Her care and attention to detail were obvious from our first meeting. She sent updates the entire weekend which gave me the peace of mind to enjoy a weekend away. Can’t recommend her enough and will be reaching out to her again!!

Hannah is a caring sitter who makes Elsa feel at home. Elsa is always happy to see Miss Hannah. Hannah keeps Elsa active and secure while she is away from us and always goes the extra mile by sending me pictures and updates. I highly recommend Hannah for your pet sitting needs.

The “three J’s” were great at accommodating my last minute request by quickly arranging a meet and greet. They showed interest in learning about Ziggy‘a needs and making sure he felt secure in a new setting. Superb knowledge and expertise in doggie behavior. I highly recommend and look forward to using their boarding services again!

Shannon and TJ were a godsend when I needed help last minute! My dog made himself immediately right at home with them and I could see he was having a great time snuggling up with them in the photos I got. And Sophie was such a treat to get to meet too - I appreciate her sharing her parents with Auggie! 🤍

Mallery was fantastic! She cared for my pup while I was gone for a weekend trip and when I got back to pick him up he didn’t want to leave her! She sent me updates daily to let me know how he was doing, which always eases my mind while away from him. Will definitely be using Mallery again!
