“Sam, Daniel and the boys took very good care of our Joey. They are experienced, confident and relaxed caretakers. It was very clear from the pictures Sam sent that Joey enjoyed his time there. He was happy to have us home but not in any way anxious to leave their house. It was easy for us to relax knowing that he was getting such good care. We will definitely bring Joey back there in the future for such A+ care.”



“Robert did a great job with my geriatric dog. He got her to go for a longer walk than we've been able to lately, and was patient with her enough to accomplish that. He also sent lots of great pictures of how she was doing. Thank you for the great care!”



“Mike was great and eased my worries as a first time boarderee. He sent updates and pictures and I never worried about my dogs care. I will definitely use him again if he will have us ☺️”


“Lan, Lucy and family were wonderful with Mochi! Lan is a kind and experienced dog caregiver. We were gone for about a week. Mochi came home happy, tired, and clean! Thank you so very much.”


“Kathleen was an amazing host for our two dogs!! Our dogs came home healthy and extra happy from all their play time. She had excellent communication and made sure to ask all the right questions to ensure our dogs were well taken care of. The updates provided throughout their stay helped us feel relaxed and worry free during our time away. She provided so many fun pictures during their stay. We will not hesitate to book with Kathleen again!!”


“Kristen and her family helped us out over a weekend. Her young girls have a lot of energy but she kept and eye on our Leo to be sure they were good with him. He sleeps a lot and they let him do that. All evidence was that Leo was cared for.”


“Kristine was an amazing sitter! She gave me wonderful daily updates and even provided me with recommendations of toys my dog enjoyed while staying with her. Our dog was relaxed, in great spirits and exhausted when we got back, so we know she had a great time! Definitely will use Kristine again! She's wonderful!”


“Jenny and Mark were great with Wall-e! He came home happy and healthy. They sent pictures during the day and even sent us home with some! Would book with them again in the future.”


“Great experience with Emily and family. We rarely use dog sitters we do not know and I was nervous about how Maisy would do. Emily was a great communicator and very responsive. She kept me updated with pictures and texts. Maisy seemed to have a great time with their sweet dog and lovely family. Huge backyard to play in! Maisy came home happy and tired out! Thank you!”


“Hollie died a great job with Monte. This was his first stay away from his family & I was NERVOUS, even though we did a meet & greet before booking. Hollie walked me through the Rover process and was kind at every step. Hollie provided plenty of photos, videos, and updates, especially the first night & morning. It sounds like Monte had fun and his playful personality (sock stealing) shined through for them. I will definitely go to Hollie first for any dog boarding that we may need.”



“Andrea was a fantastic sitter for our two dogs over a long weekend away. She sent us updates and had great communication. We are so grateful to have had a knowledgable, caring sitter for our dogs. Our dogs came home happy! Thank you, Andrea!”


“Katie had very good communication with setting up our first experience with her. This was the first time we left our dog with a sitter and she gave us great piece of mind so we could enjoy our time away without worrying about our dog. She send many updates and pictures/videos so we could see our dog was having a good time. I would recommend and use her again.”


“We felt so lucky to meet Jannet and Thomas and pup loved her time there. They made us feel comfortable leaving pup and they did a fabulous job. We highly recommend them and will use again.”


“Dylan and his family were wonderful and patient with our dog Bailey. She was well cared for and treated like family. Having once had a dog, this family knew how to take care of a dog!”

“Abby was fantastic! Juni got along great with her two dogs and she loved the fenced yard and the clean, quiet home. Abby was great with sending photos and videos and everything from the meet and greet to the pickup was well organized, clearly communicated, and professional. I will be using Abby again!”


“Jessica and her husband were great. My dog has separation anxiety, but she was in no hurry to leave their home. And, she's been relaxed since her stay with them. Communication was great. I will definitely use Jessica again!”

Emily and family took a great care of Neela while we were away for our a month long India trip. We were able to spend our vacations peacefully without worrying about our puppy. From the updates, video and photos to the extra time she gave shows how much she care. We will surely use this service in the future. Thanks Emily!

I have a grumpy, elderly chihuahua and Simon did a great job of figuring out my dog's personality and making my dog's stay fit with what he needed and enjoyed! Simon also sent daily pictures and videos of what my dog was up to, which were fun and made it so I never worried about how my dog was doing. :)

Bethany was so warm and welcoming and a perfect fit for my anxious very attached dog Hawkie. We were able to coordinate a visit in advance to see how he did and he did so well! I knew this was a perfect fit for my dog. I received photos and regular updates on how he was doing and it really put my mind at ease to know my sweet baby was being loved and pampered. I will definitely book with Bethany again in the future. She is a true gem! Thank you so much!

Allison was a wonderful sitter for our young pup, Oskar! He’s 5 months old and has only been boarded one other time, so it’s a lot of “newness” for him, and she took it all in stride. She asked questions that made us feel like she had his best interest in mind, she sent daily photos and we could tell Oskar really liked her! He was in great spirits when we picked him up and we are grateful!

Kristina was such a blessing to find to watch our doggos! We did a meet and greet with the dogs prior to the stay. She communicated frequently with videos and pictures and we were updated multiple times a day that gave us peace of mind while we were out of state. Ru and Lu were very comfortable with her. Definitely would book her for her services again, hands down!
