“I recently entrusted Maxwell with caring for my dog, Mattie & Daisy, and I was incredibly pleased with their reliability, trustworthiness, and the evident care he provided. Maxwell consistently went above and beyond, ensuring Mattie & Daisy were well-fed, exercised, and happy during their stay. He was punctual, communicative, and always willing to address any questions or concerns I had. I highly recommend Maxwell to anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring dog care provider.”

“Deb took such wonderful care of our puppy! She was only 13 weeks when we had to leave her for 2 nights, and she went above and beyond helping her adjust! She listens and cares how we are training her, does the same things, tries some of her own stuff, and just loves on Luna. I couldn't ask for a more caring sitter and Luna will be back. She got undivided attention, and training..I couldn't ask for a better place for her. She sent videos and photos the whole stay! And responded whenever I checked in with her. Thank you for loving Luna.”

About: Hi, I love dogs and would love to help you take care of yours. I currently have BIG slobbery bloodhound, a very loyal Scottie and a adorable Shitzu that keep me busy but I defiantly have time for your four legged friend. I have been a dog lover for some time so this job seems pretty natural for me. I will give your pooch lots of loving care and attention along with walks and exercise. I have a fenced area that is currently filled with a veggie garden but there are plenty of room for a stay for your pooch. My home is clean and my dogs are well taken care of. You can rest assured that your fur baby will be happy and healthy. I have a flexible schedule and try to keep my colander updated. I can be book at last minute most time but not all times. I do try to keep environment clean and pet safe. I respect other people property and privacy and you can trust me to do a good job!
“Our first time using Rover! We booked very last minute but Chloe was able to quickly answer several questions I had and accommodate a brief meet and greet the evening after contacting her, before we left our dogs at the farm the next two nights. We received periodic pictures and updates that the dogs were settled in and enjoying the outdoors. The setup felt similar to how we’ve boarded our dogs in the past. Chloe was very friendly and professional. We were very appreciative that this worked out!”
“Alice is such a friendly person. We felt very good about leaving Teddy with her for a few days. She has had pets before and knows how to show special attention to your pet when they come to stay. We will definitely consider her for another stay in the future.”
“Very nice family and sent lots of photos for only being there 1 day. Seems to have a good understanding of dog behavior. Their dog is very quiet and well behaved. Large fenced backyard with a big shade tree. I would recommend Aimee for dog sitting.”
“Jessica and her husband are AMAZING! They took such good care of our two boys as if they were their own. Our dogs are high energy and can be a lot to handle but they felt right at home from the start. We received photos and updates everyday that made us feel like they were in extra good hands. Thank you so much ♥️”
