“Collette was great with our dog. She walked him daily and has a great fenced in yard. She played with him and has her own sweet dog that our dog played with. Her home is very dog friendly. I would definitely use her services again.”
“Once again, Archie had a great time at James and Mallory's - playing with their pups and having a great time. Lots of pics and videos while we were away, thanks again to both of them!”
“Victoria was very easy to work with. We left our dog with a sitter for the first time. He did very well with Victoria, and she sent texts and photos to keep us updated on him. When we go away I will feel very confident to leave him with her again. I will give her 5 stars as far as care for my dog.”
“Maryjane and Craig were wonderful hosts for our little girl. Great communication, friendly and easy to talk to, clearly they both have a love for animals. We also received baby updates and photos of our girl and she was very happy at their home! We've already booked a repeat stay!”
“Sabrina is the absolute best with our little girl Roxy. She keeps us updated with pictures, messages and lets us know if there's anything to note when we do the trade off. Roxy loves spending time with Sabrina and Zeus.”
“Kate was incredible. Flexible, dependable, great and communication, friendly and very caring. We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our pooch to spend the weekend. She sent us lots of photos and was super easy to coordinate with. We’re so grateful for our time with her and her family. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
About: I have had pets in my life since I was a baby. We have enjoyed a lab, standard poodle and currently a mini cocker spaniel poodle mix. I love getting outside and being active with pets. I am at home with my daughter most of the time and I enjoy doing side hustles like selling vintage clothing online and seeking out antiques. We get outside with our dog, Carl often and would love to get a chance to offer outside time and love to other pets on Rover too! I always approach pets slowly with care and love. They feel our energy big time and have so much to share with us when we give them the chance.
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Kimberly. One of the reasons I chose her was for the fenced in backyard and no other pets and I wasn’t disappointed! She seemed relaxed, and I think my dog got the same vibe from her, because he seemed to be relaxed too! I will definitely use her again.”
About: Together with the help of my loving and supportive family I have years of experience in breeding, boarding, and providing tender loving care to every pup that graced our happy home. We are currently only looking to have dog visitors in our house, but we have in the past taken care of exotic birds XD I currently have no major responsibilities outside the home, so my time during the days and evenings can be spent giving your playful pooch all the attention it deserves. We make sure any companion that we hold responsible in our care has each and every need available to them, and specialized services may be requested and discussed should they be necessary for the welfare of your furry family member.
“Sue is wonderful! My dogs and I got to meet Sue and her dogs before she boarded them. She really is patient with my little dogs and understands their behaviors. One of my dogs is very anxious and barks a lot. She dealt with it well and realized he was just unsure of the environment. My 6 pound Pomeranian took a few days to warm up to her but in the end she did. Sue didn’t push herself on my dog and just let my pup come to her. She took special care to walk them and make them feel as comfortable in their new environment. Sue also took time each day to send me photos and texts so I knew they were ok. I have already booked her for two more weeks this summer. I recommend her with your dogs too. It is obvious she loves and enjoys dogs.”
“This was the second boarding with Melissa. Each time my dog looked very happy in the photos Melissa sent me assuring me that she was doing well. My dog seems to enjoy her time with Melissa. We will board her with her again.”
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was born. My parents always had cats and dogs and as the years went on, we had all sorts of animals from bunnies, horses, chickens. I rescued a cat when I lived in my apartment because I was completely lost not having an animal in my home. I actually put down a deposit on my golden retriever before moving out of my apartment that didn't allow them because I couldn't live without a dog anymore, so I knew that I would need to buy a home by then. Sure enough, we did- we bought our home so that we could have a dog. I work full-time as a nurse in Charlton and also reside in Charlton. I am available in the evenings during the week and am available all weekend days including Fridays. I cannot wait to meet your fur babies!! I work full time as a nurse but I am available evenings as well as all day friday-sunday each week. I work 5 minutes from my home so I am able to check on pets on my lunch break as well. I have a big yard and part of my yard is fenced in. I have poop bags, leashes, extra collars, purina pro dog food, plenty of cat and dog treats, cat food, and a litter box.
“She is the best! Laurie took care of our wild one with compassion and professionalism. From the moment we met with Laurie we knew that our kitty would be in capable hands with Laurie and her family. We highly recommend Laurie and want to thank her for taking such a good care of our cat.”
About: Experience with dogs, cats, turtles and bunnies. Single level home, fenced in back yard, toys for days. Small play friends (dogs) included. Try us out! I work 3 days a week and have a flexible schedule with opportunities to extend my time off to over a week. Please check availability. My fenced in back yard is ideal for fetch and zoomies for dogs of all sizes. Rural neighborhood is ideal for new scents and exploring while on walks.
“Lauren was wonderful! She was able to assist us last minute due to another rover care provider canceling day before. My dog was in excellent hands. She did well won’t their family and she took her out for walks. Lauren sent photos as well. Thank you.”
