Ashton was great to Oakley. She bathed her before I picked her up and Oakley didn’t seem stressed at all which is always a concern because she ends up with diarrhea but not this time! Oakley is going to Live in OK with my daughter however I will bring my mini pom to her!

I will definitely be boarding with Marina again in the future! She has amazing accommodations for the fur babies she’s house sitting, and I got so many pictures of my dog having an absolute blast. They have a gorgeous fenced in play pen specifically to use as a dog yard, and everything is so nicely kept.

Patience was incredible to work with this weekend. I always get a little nervous leaving my dog with people but she calmed my nerves right away. She was very communicative, sent pictures and I know my little guy was in great hands! I would recommend her very highly to anyone looking for boarding!

This was my first time ever using the Rover app and I was nervous to find someone who would treat my dog as if he was home. Rebekah was absolutely amazing. She was kind and really treated my dog as if he was her own. She has 2 dogs of her own and although they are much bigger than my dog, they got along great. I would book her again!

Aurora was the most genuine animal lover I have ever met. Luna was in perfect hands. I was actually afraid she would not want to come home with me. Aurora sent pictures throughout the day that captured Luna's experience while in Aurora's care. They were a relief for me just to know that Luna was in great hands. Thank you Aurora, I will definitely be getting in touch upon my return to Panama City.

Iam very very happy with her daycare service. I booked her last minute to drop off two of my puppies and she was glad to accomodate that. She was very prompt in responding back and she has a very big yard with all the play area for dogs to njoy. I would highly recommend her.

Thank you Jan for taking care of our Fuzzy. We traveled at the last minute and were planning on keeping our dog with us in the hotel. We decided to search to see if there are any sitters available in the area and that’s how I found her with awesome reviews. She was prompt in responding to my messages and was able to coordinate care. We received constant updates with messages and pictures.

About: My name is Alexandria, and I absolutely love all the pups! I would love to care for your fur baby and get all the cuddles while you enjoy your time away! I’ve got 8+ years experience being a kennel tech and would be better accommodated if I could do it remotely. I haven’t met an animal yet that I didn’t love caring for! I work for Bay District Schools so I am off for the summer and have plenty of free time and am accommodated to sit small breed dogs. I have a 3 month old miniature schnauzer and a 5 month old plott hound beagle mix that are the light of my life aside from being a mom! I sit for family and friends but am looking to expand. I can care for pets in-home, and can be available for house visits. I’m very experienced in nail trimming and bathing. I do not offer grooming services but will if necessary.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a child, grown up with animals my entire life and absolutely love being a fur mama! My pup Sadie is very obedient and trained because I worked with her since she was a puppy. I have always walked, fed, and bathed many pets throughout the years! I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for and play with your fur baby! I’m available to board Monday through Sunday! I have a dog park in my community and spend a lot of time outdoors. I have 1 pup and 2 baby kittens who are as friendly as can be and would love to keep your pet company! I can easily crate your dog if needed.
