“Lily took great care of our senior dog Norman! She and her family kept in great contact with us, and met our little guy at his energy level - providing cuddles, soft beds, and calm outdoor time, but also willing to take him out for more adventures when he was up for it. They made sure he integrated well with their sweet dog. We'd absolutely her to watch him again!”
“Mario is an extremely caring dog sitter. My 6yr old zz loved being with Mario and his dogs. Zz was so exhausted when he was back home and missed his new friends. I constantly received his photos and videos that was great. Mario took zz out on walks even in snow and cared for zz to my satisfaction.”
“Sue was great. Really patient and accommodating. My pup was returned to me happy and healthy. Her husband was also very nice and they both seemed very confident and comfortable with my pup who’s a 48lb pittie. Thank you Sue and Franky. We appreciated your care and attention to our fur baby. Sue also sent regular selfies of the pup and was quick to reply to messages.”
“Dew was fantastic! Her communication was great, she made sure my dog was comfortable and settled in. She sent status updates throughout his stay. He came home unstressed and in a great mood all happy and healthy. I would highly recomend her to anyone looking for dog care!”
“Rachael was helpful, communicative, trustworthy and responsive - she made the process a breeze and took great care of our dog. Everyday I was sent photos of her running, playing, exploring and having fun. Pepper even came back with sharpened training — I will be booking again and again!”

“Judith and her family are absolutely wonderful. Chloe had the most amazing stay and didn’t want to come home LOL. I had a hard time getting her in the car. Judith was so communicative and let us know how Chloe was doing every day. I think Chloe misses them and Cali!! Thank you Judith ❤️❤️❤️”

“Rich is indeed a star sitter! Our Boston terrier,Rocky, had a wonderful time ( 10 days) in Rich’s place. Rich was diligent of sending daily reports depicting various activities involving Rocky and Rich friendly dogs, Toro and Peach. I have an impression that Rocky spent 10 days in boyscout summer camp. We highly recommend Rich. Leo”

Thank you, Lily & family, for taking such good care of my Penny! Lily was communicative, sending texts and pics throughout the day. The best was the video I received each evening recapping her adventures. There was a mix of outdoor & indoor play, along with lots of snuggles. First time boarding any of my dogs, and I felt at ease throughout my vacation that she was well cared for.
We were going to Europe for 10 days and didn't want to leave our 5 year old black lab, Hazel, in a kennel. We found Tracy on Rover and decided she was right because she had a history owning labs. Tracy was wonderful! Her dog Lucy, also a lab, became fast friends and Hazel was very comfortable in her home. Nice large fenced in yard in quiet neighborhood. Her son Grayson also loved taking care of Hazel. We would highly recommend Tracy for any boarding needs, short term or longer term as was our case.
