“Shay communicated well with me before and during the stay. She was patient with my dog while he was adjusting. I saw pictures of him enjoying himself. I think my dog got spoiled.”
“Stephen and his wife and daughter made Bandit feel right at home. I loved all of the pictures and text to show me what she was doing. I’m sure she loved the walks to the lake. I would definitely recommend Stephen and I am positive I will use him again. Thank you for making Bandit feel a part of the family.”
“I was so happy to find Evelyn. Such a nice person. It was a plus that she works out of her home. Leroy has separation anxiety, so having someone to hangout with during the day, instead of being put in a kennel, meant so much to me. Evelyn was so good about sending me photos. Leroy definitely has a new place to hangout now when I’m gone!! Thank you so much, Evelyn! From Lee Ann and Leroy!”
“Our toy poodle stayed with Sarah and Cyrus for a week, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she received! They kept in touch regularly, sending plenty of photos and updates. She got lots of love, belly rubs, and short walks throughout her stay. We’ll definitely be booking with Sarah and Cyrus again!”
“Absolutely loved my Experience with Emily! Chia came home happy & was very well loved in her time with Emily! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with a sitter than I got, especially since it was a bit short notice! We will be 100% booking again with Emily :) She was also amazing in letting us know how our cutie was doing & took so many photos! 🩷”
“Brittany and her family did a great job taking care of our two goldens. They were at her house for an extended period of time and we appreciated the pictures and messages throughout their stay. We would definitely book Brittany again without hesitation!”
“This is the second time Oban has stayed at Sean & Jolene “puppy summer camp”. On our way to their house Obi was so excited as he recognized the route. He was so well cared for and we could tell how well he got along with their other pups. He got to play, and run, and sleep , and eat, and snuggle as much as he wanted. When my neighbor went to pick him up, she could tell he was sad to leave his bestie, Gunner. She also sang Sean & Jolene’s praises. She was so impressed with how much room the pups had to run around in and how well mannered their dogs were😊 I will most definitely ask to visit “camp” again.”
“Chloe took great care of amber while we were away. I think amber and her dog played all day every day. I would use Chloe again when we go out of town. Thanks Rover and Chloe. Don”
“First time stay with Katie and my two dogs seemed to be very comfortable at her home. Comfortable house and yard for dogs to stay. She sent me pictures a couple of times and updates on my doggies which makes you feel comfortable. I will definitely book with Katie again.”
“Danielle was amazing!! She was available last minute and was just perfect my dog, Iris! Danielle even picked her up and dropped her off with my daughter as we were coordinating schedules. I highly recommend and will book again!”
“Aunt Telecia is AMAZING!!! She shows so much love for Merlin. He loves her and feels so comfortable at her home. I’m so glad I have someone to care for him in KC whenever I’m traveling.”
“Samantha was wonderful! We left our kitty with her for 10 days! It was our first time using Rover and boarding our cat in general. Samantha gave us updates and let us know how our kitty was doing. She sent pictures and asked questions as needed. Her communication and care for our cat gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Bridget was amazing! She was very nice and her house was very clean. She sent me pictures while I was away and provided updates on how Mabel was doing. I will definitely be using her again for future vacations.”
About: We’re a dog-loving family of four with years of hands-on experience caring for pets. We have two friendly dogs of our own and involve our kids, ages 10 and 13, in daily walks, feeding, playtime, and cuddles. We’ve welcomed many dogs into our home and treat every pet like they’re part of our family. Whether it’s play in the backyard, relaxing indoors, or sticking to special routines, your dog will feel safe, loved, and right at home with us. I work from home and am available throughout the day for regular potty breaks, snuggles, playtime, and lots of love. We have a basket full of dog toys for playtime fun, and dog beds in different shapes and sizes for naptime. We have two dogs of our own: a Shih Tzu/Poodle mix that weighs around 20 lbs and a Bichon Frise/Shih Tzu mix that weighs around 10 lbs. Our family loves dogs! Safety and comfort are our top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard with secure five-foot privacy pickets and a locked gate to ensure your pup can enjoy outdoor time safely. When we're away for short periods during the day or when it's time to sleep at night, dogs are comfortably settled in crates with cozy bedding to keep them secure and relaxed. (Of course, we’re happy to accommodate pets with special needs—just let us know.) We’re rarely away for more than a few hours at a time, and dogs are given regular potty breaks throughout the day, including first thing in the morning and before bedtime, to keep them happy and on a routine.
“It was so hard to leave my boy behind while vacationing. I’ve never had him stay anywhere, but with family. Michelle was very reassuring as we left. She sent us videos and picture of my happy boy. I can say confidently, if I ever need a dog sitter again, I’ll reach out to Michelle.”
“Holly loves our pug and takes good care of him! She is caring and enjoys his company. She responds to messages and gives updates as well as pictures. There is ample space both in her home and backyard for our pug to enjoy!”
“Ms. Lauren is so amazing. Professional is not enough of an amazing word to describe her love, care, and understanding. I felt that my sweet Merlin was cared for and loved beyond measure. I can’t wait to book her again!!”

Ashley H.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five-Star Dog Sitting! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my two mini schnauzers while I was away! From the moment I left, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such loving, capable hands. They treated my pups like family—making sure they were well-fed, walked, cuddled, and even spoiled with extra attention (which they definitely didn’t mind!). It was clear they weren’t just “watching” the dogs—they truly cared for them. I got reassurance me that everything was going great at home. When I returned, my dogs were happy and healthy. Honestly, they might have been a little disappointed that I came back! If you ever need someone to love your pets like you do, this is the person to call. I’m beyond grateful, and so are my schnauzers!”
