“Chantelle was great! She was able sit my pup last minute for several days, was very communicative, sent picture updates, administered my pup's daily anxiety medicine no problem, and made sure she got plenty of exercise/exploration time. Josie had a great time snuggling and going on adventures with her and her daughter, who was very gentle/loving with her. Thank you Chantelle!”

It was our first time booking with Emily and we were able to rest easy knowing she was well taken care of. We'd highly recommend Emily.”

Jordan was absolutely AMAZING with our dog, Lilo! 🐾 From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such great hands. He sent us plenty of updates throughout her stay, which we really appreciated and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We ended up running late getting home, and Jordan could not have been more understanding, flexible, and accommodating. He truly went above and beyond for us and for Lilo. We seriously cannot recommend Jordan enough. If you’re looking for someone who is caring, communicative, reliable, and genuinely wonderful with dogs, BOOK HIM! We would trust Lilo with him again in a heartbeat. A million out of ten! ❤️🐶

Obi was in the best hands during our two week vacation. All instructions were followed perfectly, including her heartworm meds given on time! We loved the daily photos and videos. Iris was also a gracious doggie host, letting Obi sleep in her bed sometimes :) thanks for making her part of the family while we were away!

Sheena was absolutely fantastic in taking care of Boon! I received progress pictures and details of how he was doing throughout his boarding with her. He’s usually nervous in these situations of being boarded because he gives me the silent treatment when I come back from being away from him but he was so happy all around, no silent treatment this time! This was a fantastic first experience on rover for both of us.

Yan was super sweet and responsive. Communication was easy. We came late from our delayed flight, Yan was very understanding about pick ups. She sent cute photos of our dog and shared a daily update. I loved that she specializes in elderly dogs. She was a great fit for our Harper. Thanks Yan!! Would love to work with you again.

Chris watched our large, older dog for a few days. We could tell from pics and videos that our dog was happy and relaxed there! He had a lot of fun and got to play with some other dogs that were staying. Chris was very responsive and professional in all our communication and easy to arrange meet and greet and drop off/ pick up.

Sebastian was great and Charlie seemed happier than when we send her to regular boarding (25+ dogs around her)! She just loves attention, and we appreciate that Sebastian could give her pets and give her the attention she wants! We got daily updates and will definitely keep Sebastian in mind for future stays.

My dog is human reactive and Karen and Matt were so amazing befriending her. We did two meet and greets to get her familiar with them and their home. We got updates and pictures daily and Gia seemed happy to be with them! She’s an anxious girl, and although she was stressed being away from home, Karen and Matt took great care of her. She has made new friends in them :)
