1. Madison S.
“Madison watched our dog, Kaia, while we were out of town and we couldn’t be happier! She is kind and sweet to Kaia and sent up updates with pics as to how she was doing. She had so much fun playing with their dog, Jack, that I don’t think she wanted to come home. ? We will definitely be using Madison again in the future!”
2. Suzanne B.
“Suzanne is the best! I was actually able to relax on my vacation and not worry about my dog because I knew she was getting excellent care and love while I was away. She also sent daily pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”
3. Elizabeth N.
“Mikey Mike spent the night with Liz this past weekend and had a great time! Liz asked lots of questions upfront to ensure Mikey Mike had everything he needed. Her and her husband took him for many walks and treated him like their own. She also sent me pics and videos to update me on how he was doing. This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. I will definitely be reaching out to Liz again!”
4. Jessica D.
“We highly recommend Jessica’s services! Her communication was top notch, she gave us constant updates throughout the boarding length, including pictures and videos. Our dog was happy and tired when we picked him up, which is not an easy task! Important to say, Jessica was very friendly from the very first contact and meet and greet. Thanks for your help with Copper!”
5. Erica & Thomas C.
“Our puppy received the most loving care from Erica & Thomas (and their kids!). We went away on vacation knowing he was in the best hands possible, allowing us to feel secure knowing he was happy and healthy. We received daily updates/pictures with any issues, which we deeply appreciated. We will continue to use them for care for our puppy in the future!”
6. Francis E.
“I cannot say enough good things about Francis and her family! From the very beginning to end she went above and beyond to make sure Brady (and I) were comfortable! She updated me regularly and was communicative during the entire booking. You can tell her & her family love on the animals as if they were their own. I look forward to using her again in the future! Thanks so much, Francis!!! 😊”
7. Nina K.
“Nina provided great care for our dog Max and was very communicative when there was an issue during his stay. She is very friendly and kind. She also has the cutest puppy in the world!!”
8. Nala P.
“Regular photo updates and great communication. Also great care of our dog! Our Mini Aussie did not want to go home, she wanted to stay with them!! Highly recommend”
9. Zuri W.
“Zuri was a great sitter for our pet Corgi. When our flights were delayed and we had to take a later flight, Zuri was understanding and worked with us. She communicated well throughout the stay, sending a picture or video or two every day. Our little boy loved Zuri’s dog and they had a great few days together.”
10. Vika & Victoria P.
“Vika and Victoria were a dream! They took amazing care of my Dilla. They sent multiple pictures everyday and Dilla had so much fun! He went on daily walks and had lots of playtime. They answered all my questions and were very attentive to our pups needs. We will definitely be using them again. It gives you great peace of mind to have people you can trust to watch your dog! I think Dilla was a little sad to leave them haha. Don’t think twice, book them!”
11. Tina B.
“Tina is AWESOME! We boarded our special needs, almost blind senior shih tzu with her last night and everything went great. Tina is responsive, very easy to work with, super attentive to our little girl and clearly has a great deal of experience with all kinds of dogs. Our pup is a rescue that had been abandoned just over a year ago, so she is quite anxious and has separation anxiety. We always worry about how things will go when we leave her... Tina was fantastic with her!!! She sent regular text updates and adorable photos to make us feel at ease. We cant recommend Tina highly enough and have already booked her again for future events when we need a siter. THANK YOU TINA!!!!”
12. Wilson & Cherryl E.
“Wilson and Cherryl made sure our puppy SKY got plenty of playtime, and even sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which really put our minds at ease. He was very comfortable with there kids and was happy when we picked him up. SKY was in such caring hands. We will definitely trust Wilson and Cherryl for future trips!””
13. Shannon C.
“We went on a 16 day trip out of the country and we knew Marley was in safe and caring hands. We got regular videos which reassured us he was happy and having a great time with the other dogs. The best review was when we were eating at an outdoor restaurant patio and suddenly he started to wag his tail like crazy! I was trying to think of who would cause that type of reaction, and it was Shannon and her husband! We will definitely be going back to Shannon.”
14. Jennifer & Adam S.
“Jennifer and Adam were so nice and took very good care of our senior dog!”
15. Sharon H.
“I want Sharon to be my pups forever auntie. I have never boarded any of my dogs. I lost my boxer at the end of December 2002. I’ve always had dogs but as time passed I felt this sense of freedom that I’d never experienced before. I booked a 7 day trip to Nashville. I had no responsibilities so why not right? 3 months before the trip (November 4th 2023) I went to an adoption event and came home with a very scared Texas pup. Sharon took him several times before our trip so that he could get to know her. He is not easy to say the least. She was great with him. While we were away she sent me daily messages and pictures. She kept reassuring me that he was doing great and telling me to enjoy myself when I would tell her I couldn’t wait to get home to him. When we returned to get him he wanted to stay with her. When we got outside to leave he ran back inside with her. Sharon had big smile she again reassured me that it happens sometimes. I am so lucky to have found Sharon and will 100% recommend her to everyone.”
16. Dana F.
“Dana was great! Abby had a great time there playing with her dogs and getting lots of exercise in her fenced in back yard. She slept for twelve hours straight when she got home.”
17. Mary K.
“Mary was wonderful with Sydni! Very professional, caring and great communication with us. We never had any concerns during our trip. I would highly recommend her and will definitely have her sit for Syd again.”
18. Anna M.
“Anna took fantastic care of our two pups while we were away for a trip. She sent us daily photo updates and was very attentive to them. They both came back very happy and we are thankful for her care!”
19. Murphy V.
“Otis came home happy. Murphy sent cute pics during his stay. She is very friendly and obviously loves animals. Her dog, Dolly is also very sweet. We will use her service again.”
20. Karissa L.
“Karissa was very accommodating and responded to my last minute request for care after the sitter scheduled cancelled on us last minute. Right away my dog sensed her good energy, that of her family and home. He was happy at drop off and came back happy, which speaks volumes of the good care he received. I appreciated the daily update and reassuring pictures. If I am in Newport next year, I hope Chapu can stay with Karissa and family again. Thanks so much!”
