“Erin and Steve are wonderful. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog, Shadow, with them. We loved getting their daily note and picture. We know Shadow had a great time because in every picture they sent he was either outside playing in their big yard or in the house being a part of their family. We highly recommend Erin and Steve and will definitely use them again for boarding!”
“Sheila suggested a meet and greet before commitment which I appreciated as my 60 pound Boxer puppy can be a bit much. We enjoyed the videos and felt the home atmosphere versus a kennel was a better fit for him.”
“Mary and her family were wonderful with our dog Nova!! They have a huge fenced in backyard, and took her on many walks. We felt like she was in amazing care during our trip, and received photos throughout the day! Thank you so much Mary!”

“Kathy was fantastic. We had her watch our pup when we were in town for a wedding. She took time to understand our dog's personality and his particular needs. She send a couple of updates. We were very impressed by her understanding that being away from home and your people can be a little tough on pups. She gave Dooley space and let him warm up to her. Thanks, Kathy. We highly recommend!”

Anthony not only took amazing care of him but sent me daily pictures and updates for the entire month! I will never have anyone else watch my Charlie other than Anthony. Seriously he is just simply amazing and I’m so grateful to gave foubd him! Highly recommend him to all of my friends and family!”

You can tell her family is so loving towards animals. I would recommend her to anyone looking for great, attentive care for their pet!”
“Elaine took care of our dog for a week and was incredibly kind and thoughtful. While we were away on our trip, she kept us updated regularly so we wouldn’t worry, which I truly appreciated. Thanks to her kindness and consistent communication, we were able to enjoy our vacation with complete peace of mind. I will definitely trust her with our dog again next time!”
“Sarah is fantastic with our pets. She sent pictures everyday and little updates. It was so needed because it was our puppy's stay away from home. After the stay, Sarah provided a picture card that was the final touch of their trip. One of the best Rover stays I've experienced. Thank you Sarah!”
“Jacklyn took great care of our dog and sent us regular updates, photos, and even videos throughout his stay at her condo. She took him on many walks each day and demonstrated that she cared for our dog's well-being. We highly recommend Jacklyn and we look forward to calling on her in the future when we go out of town.”
“Kristi, was a perfect doggie host! Our dog Beanie is a bit of a whiner, but she did wonderful at Kristi's. She was happy and healthy when I picked her up. Kristi kept me updated with messages and pictures and was very flexible when my drop off times changed a bit. All and all, a very good experience for us and our dog! Thank you Kristi, we will come back again and recommend you to all dog owners!”
“my dogs must have enjoyed it because they didn’t act any different getting in the car and going home. They barely missed us. I can tell this family enjoyed taking care of my dogs and I was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were in good hands.”

“Zachary took such good care of Ruby! I could tell when we were leaving she was so happy by the way she was prancing out the door. I'm so glad to have found such a nice, caring home for Ruby to have sleepovers while we travel. Thanks so much Zachary and Jaclyn.”
“Super nice and accommodating pet sitter! This was the first time we had boarded our cat with another cat and everything worked out really well. Would definitely consider Pavlina in the future.”
