“Donte took excellent care of 2 of my dogs for 4 days. I was a little hesitant to book someone without reviews on Rover (he’s just starting in this platform) but he was very understanding, answered all my questions and I found reviews for his training services on Google. I felt even more reassured when I dropped off my dogs and saw him engaging with them in a genuine way. Donte was great at sending updates and videos of some of the training he did. I’ll definitely come back for boarding and continue training sessions.”
“Ashley was wonderful. Zena was right at home. I truly appreciate the care and attention Ashley and her family provided for Zena while we were out. I definitely recommend her for anyone needing a caring sitter for their pet. Thank you, Ashley!”
“I'm so thankful to have found Bobby! My dog can be very anxious in new places but had a great day at Bobby's with his two pups, he made me feel so comfortable at our meet & greet and drop off and will definitely be taking my dog back!”
“I'm so impressed! I love that you kept me updated the entire time, and I know Stormy had an amazing experience. Thank you so much! I give it a 10 out of 10 and definitely recommend it.”
“It's our first time to work with Madeline and she's great with our dog Zach. She's friendly & outgoing that we feel comfortable even if it's our first time to meet her. We are looking forward to work with her again.”
“Nicole is the absolute best! Her two sweet little dogs are great companions for my two and her house is perfect for dogs. She goes the extra mile with my old beagle to make sure he doesn't get into everything (the nose!!!) and that he is comfortable. She has watched my dogs about 5 or 6 times now!”
“Our dog Pinta loved staying with Eric and his wife. They were super communicative with us and took her on lots of walks even in the snow and very cold temperatures. It was clear that our pup received a lot of love! We will definitely reach out to them again when we need a sitter.”
“Kanade and her husband were such amazing sitters for my 2.5 year old Pom mix, Marsha. They treated her like she was one of their own and were so communicative with me. I'll definitely asking Kanade to watch her again soon. Thank you again!”

“Tony was a great host for Penny, reliable and responsive, sending frequent photo and video updates. He's got so much space in that yard, and there are always other dogs around to play with, so Penny had a great time. We had to have two different people do drop-off and pick-up, and Tony was very flexible in making this work with everyone's schedule. He's a great host, we definitely recommend.”
“Alice did a wonderful job taking care of Sandy and keeping us updated. She watched her for 2 weeks and made sure we received plenty of pictures and knew how Sandy was doing while we were away.”

My dog was very excited to be with them and they took great care of him. I received updates and pictures during his stay. I am grateful to them to be able to enjoy my vacation and know that my precious Goose was in great hands. I am appreciative and grateful for such wonderful service.”
“Chrissy did a fantastic job taking care of Sammie and sent us pictures and movie clips and kept us updated. When we went to pick up Sammie he was looking well looked after, loved and very happy! Chrissy is loving and compassionate person which also makes her the best person and excellent choice to take care of your precious little furry family member!”
“Kevin made my 12 yo dog comfortable from the start. And I felt good about leaving him there for the first time. I appreciated getting a couple photos, and I’m sure there will be a next time in the future. Thx Kevin (and Rover)!”
“Emilio was very accommodating for a last minute overnight booking for my puppy. Emilio was very kind and professional and sent pictures and videos randomly and when asked. We will definitely use Emilio again for any future doggy needs.”
“Cartier did an excellent job for Sterling's 1st stay with her. He loves her. He was so happy to the point he was doing zoomies. I received picture updates every day. 10/10....Would highly recommend.”
