Highly-rated overnight sitters - Strickler
“Sue was extremely kind and welcoming to our dog, and took great care of him! She was quite sweet to both us and our furry friend, and we would definitely use her again in the future for watching him. 10 out of 10, highly recommend!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Miranda and her husband. Great communication, i got lots of videos and pictures and they were flexible with my times for pick up. My dog was well loved and cared for with them. I’ll be using them in the future.”
“We love leaving Ford with Tiffany and her family. He always has the best time, and we know he is safe and well cared for. We are thankful he has a place he feels welcome. He is excited when we pull up to her house!”
“Pamela was absolutely wonderful. She kept us updated throughout the stay by sending pictures and videos, which gave us great peace of mind and let us see how much fun our dog was having. It was clear from every update that our dog was happy, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention and care.”
“I didn’t expect my cat to do well with boarding. She’s a very anxious creature. A scaredy cat in the truest sense! Christopher and Jennie did everything in their power to make her feel at home, and I know they did a good job because she bounced back very quickly once we got back home, which has never happened with other boardings! She’s been prone to hiding for days after past experiences, but that didn’t happen here. Thanks for taking care of my best friend, guys. She may not have been super receptive to it, but I know she appreciated you regardless.”
“Jasmine was great to Diggs and sent lots of updates and pictures! Diggs loved playing with her dog, Milo too! She even went the extra mile to help Diggs eat when he was more interested in playing.”
“Tracy was amazing with Olive—so attentive and communicative, with lots of photo updates that gave me total peace of mind. Olive was clearly well cared for and happy. I’d absolutely recommend Tracy and would book with her again!”
“Ashlee was fantastic. She watched our dogs over memorial day weekend. She was attentive, asked questions about their care, and was open to any concerns/questions I had. She sent me pictures all weekend and updated me on how they were doing!! And she was very flexible when our flight got delayed to come pick them up. Our pups were happy and clean when we picked them up! I highly recommend Ashlee!!!!”
“I can't say enough good things about Layne and how she took care of my dog. She treated him like one of her own. It was obvious when I picked Ford up that he had a great time. He was extremely relaxed and happy. I know he was comfortable and safe our whole trip. Layne also kept me updated with pictures and feedback. It was perfect! (And I'm a worrier! 😂)”
“1000/10!!! I had been so busy with work I forgot to book dog sitting days before my international trip. Lillian came to the rescue and was so flexible, and put my mind at ease. My baby Eevee had so much fun and I will be rebooking in the future!!”
“Alicen was AMAZING with Dan!! Helped us out in a last minute Hail Mary on a Holiday weekend as well!! Could never recommend someone more! Danny played so well with her 2 pups and Alicen kept us very well updated with pictures!!”
“Everything was seamless, from meet and greet to pickup and drop off, Bianca made me feel secure with leaving my dog in her care. Constant communication with texts and pictures was just what I needed to reassure myself he was in great hands. As someone who normally takes their dog everywhere or has family watching him, I was totally confident I made the right choice with Bianca. I would definitely recommend and rebook with her any time.”
“My bordoodle dog Chloe had a great time staying with Barbara and her two small dogs over the weekend. Barbara took great care of her and sent me pictures and/or videos of her every day. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“What a wonderful experience for our first Rover stay! Jen was quick to reply to my message(s) and very accommodating with scheduling. During the stay I got lots of photos and videos of my Coco and their pup playing and hanging out together. Drop off and pick up was super easy and during that time I met most of the family. They are so lovely and have a beautiful home.”
“We really appreciated having Sharon watch Koko. She was great about sending pictures and letting us know how our dog baby was doing. We really enjoy our trip because we didn't have to worry we knew that our dog was in a loving home.”
“She is amazing! Lots of detailed updates and pictures while we were away. He was very well taken care of and loved every minute of his stay! We will definitely be returning 😃”

“Kaylee is an excellent pet sitter and was so accommodating and helpful. She went above and beyond, and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about the pets. Would definitely book her services again!”
About: I adopted my sweet girls Lizzy and Georgie a year and a half ago, and they have filled my life with love ever since. Adopting them as older kittens has allowed me “parent” them through different life stages, and I think it’s safe to say I know wayyy more about the various kinds of mischief they can get into now! A librarian by profession, I love researching cats and cat care, as I only want the best for my girls. I want the best for your kitties, too! I am passionate about helping keep kitty spaces up to their high standards of cleanliness for maximum comfort, and about creative, stimulating playtime for cats of all ages.
About: I have always had a love for dogs. I have worked at multiple different kennels and worked with multiple different dogs. Can administer medications if needed. I know how stressful it can be trying to find a reliable sitter, but I am here to help! I currently am not employed, so my availability is very open right now. Willing to do boarding in your home on weekends or weekdays as needed. Available to do potty breaks anytime of the day! I think dogs do best in familiar environments as well as with familiar people. I would love to watch your dog in your home, or swing by for potty breaks after meeting the dog a few times prior.
“Lily Kay is the best sitter we’ve had since moving here. She keeps us updated and loves on our babies. Our dog has anxiety and warms up to few people. Lily Kay was patient with our baby and now she loves her! 110% recommend!”
“Gabby and Dalton did a fantastic job taking care of my chickens and cats. They were reliable, attentive, and made sure all the animals were well-fed, safe, and happy. They also kept us updated every step of the way. I’d highly recommend them to anyone needing caring and trustworthy pet sitters!”
About: Your peace of mind is my guarantee! I have over 6 years experience in veterinary medicine in both emergency and general practice. I have over 2 years experience in veterinary diagnostics and animal health. This ranges from young new born puppies and kittens to senior care. I am comfortable administering all medications and cleaning out those dirty litter boxes! I love all animals and can not wait to provide an exceptional and fun experience for them!
About: I’ve had cats in my life for as long as I can remember. I have 2 of my own, Belladonna and Pumpernickel, and have had several more throughout my life. I also cat sit regularly for my friends when they’re at work or out of town.
“While I was out of town, Anna stayed with my cat at the house. With tornado sirens going off, she grabbed him and stayed in an interior closet until all was clear! Sincerely over and above! Thank you, Anna, for everything!”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of attentiveness, patience, and genuine care I bring to every pet I work with. I don’t just “watch” pets — I learn their routines, quirks, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I have extensive experience with small and senior dogs, including my own 12-year-old mini poodle, so I’m very comfortable with gentle handling, medication routines, mobility support, and calming anxious pups. I understand that older dogs and shy pets need a slower pace, consistency, and lots of reassurance — and that’s exactly what I provide. I’m also reliable, detail-oriented, and communicative. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in calm, capable hands. Whether your dog is playful, timid, energetic, or just wants to nap next to someone kind, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel right at home. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. 🐾 I work from home and keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks, feedings, playtime, medication, and potty breaks on a consistent routine. Whether it's early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening care, I plan my time so your pet's needs always come first. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I take time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so I can provide calm, consistent care. In your home, I follow your instructions closely, respect your space, and double-check doors, gates, and leashes to keep everything secure. In my home, pets are treated like family in a safe, cozy, and supervised environment with plenty of structure, play, rest, and affection. I also send regular updates and photos so you always feel confident and connected while you're away.
About: I’m an animal lover with years of hands-on pet care experience. I have two dogs and two cats—one pair inside the house and one pair outside—so I’m comfortable with pets of all personalities and routines. I also spent 10 years raising Corgis, giving me deep experience with training, socialization, and daily care. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and cats, keeping them happy, safe, and well-loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I prioritize spending quality time with animals and ensuring they are happy and cared for. I am available on weekends and occasionally during the week, depending on distance and the specific needs of each pet. I’m flexible and committed to tailoring visits to fit both the pet’s schedule and the owner’s requirements. When caring for pets in your home, I provide personalized attention to meet each pet’s needs. I will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, while ensuring your pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I’ll also maintain a clean environment, give plenty of affection, and provide updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I love animals and have had dogs my entire life, I have had mainly medium to large dogs, along with a Great Pyrenees dog. I love getting to play and love on new dogs because they are so sweet. Dogs really are mans best friend. I personally have trained puppies very successfully with potty training and telling me when they need to go outside. I have plenty of dog toys at my home but dogs can always bring their own too. I am use to walking dogs for a long time my dog has a lot of energy so most of our walks are about 45 mins minimum. I can also handle watching or walking multiple dogs at a time so if you need more than one dog walked at a time I can do that also.
About: I grew up on a farm taking care of blood hounds! I’ve always loved animals, and have a special place in my heart for poodles. I also love cats, as I grew up with barn cats and house cats alike! I have one cat, Sweetheart, who’s an 11 year old rescue and a 1 year old Maltipoo who loves to get into mischief! I am a part-time student, part-time nurse at the moment. I work night-shift when nursing, so I occasionally have days to myself and would love to spend the time taking care of pets! I love to walk and try to get 10,000 steps in a day, so if you are looking for a dog walker, I can promise your pup will get some good exercise! If your dog or cat is staying over, they will receive lots of affection - including play time, frequent walks, and likely a play pal via my pup Rosie!
About: I had my first dog when I was 8 and raised her from a puppy for 5 years. Also, I’ve been pet/dog (e.g. dogs, cat, reptiles, etc.) and house sitting for several years. I graduated from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, was born and raised in Northwest Arkansas, and currently volunteer with the Fayetteville animal shelter. I’m currently working full-time M-F from 8am-5pm with a few breaks. More than willing to do whatever takes to ensure you and your pet are most comfortable. We have several parks nearby within a quaint neighborhood. I have a 2BR apartment, no pets, and tons of amenities available (dog park, walking trails, etc.).

Perfect for high energy dogs - Strickler
“Tracy was great, took great care of Bracken, and sent updates throughout the day! She was nice enough to accept our request last minute. We will definitely bring Bracken back!”
“Christopher took good care of my dog and cat while I visited the Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville. He provided a cool place for my 19 year old cat to relax and 2 sweet dogs for my young cattle dog to play with. I’d definitely use him again when I visit Bentonville.”
“Lark is very responsive and seems to know her stuff. Our pup was very well taken care of and seems to really have enjoyed herself. It’s always tough leaving them but we feel confident Lark responds nda to each dogs needs and we are looking forward to using Lark again soon for boarding as she did a great job.”

“Becca and her husband were both absolutely amazing with my puppy!!! She was quick to respond when I would text her and was super flexible when I needed to change times due to scheduling conflicts. My puppy would leave their house so happy and worn out (in the best way) from long walks and play time!! Becca would also work on a few training things with him! I will 100% be using Becca again!”
About: Hello, fellow dog moms and dads! I’m a lifelong dog lover with plenty of hands-on experience and two dogs of my own. I work fully remote, and as a dog parent I know how reassuring it is to be able to check in during the day for quick potty breaks, fresh water, and a little attention when they need it. I’d love to extend that same dependable, thoughtful care to you, so you can feel confident your dog is safe and cared for, whether you’re stuck in an office all day or just have a busy schedule. What sets me apart is my focus on reliable communication and safety. I’m responsive, I follow your routine closely, and I’ll always send photo updates and a clear recap after each visit. I also have experience with brachycephalic breeds (like English Bulldogs and French Bulldogs) and understand the extra care they can require, especially around heat, breathing, and pacing on walks. In addition, I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs, including slower-paced walks, gentle routines, and extra patience and monitoring. I’m happy to tailor each visit to your dog’s needs and energy level. I’m also pet first aid and CPR certified though American Red Cross. I always have a pet first aid kit at my home as well as in my car for drop in visits and walks. 🐾Ask About Spa Add-Ons!🐾 All of my boarding guests can enjoy optional spa services such as baths (short-haired dogs), brushing, teeth brushing, ear cleaning, and paw balm treatments. Mention your interest when booking for details and pricing! Pet care is already part of my everyday routine since I’m a dog owner myself. I work fully remote, so I’m used to planning my day around potty breaks, walks, feeding times, and check-ins. Because I’m home during the day, I can be responsive with midday drop-ins and walks and communicate quickly if anything comes up. I keep a consistent schedule and plan routes close by so I can be reliable and on time. I follow your instructions closely and stick to your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. Drop-in visits (up to 40 minutes) are perfect for a midday check-in while you’re at work or away. During each visit, I’ll follow your routine and make sure your pup is comfortable and cared for: a potty break, fresh water, feeding if requested, and some playtime/affection. I’ll also do a quick check that doors/gates are secure before I leave. Dog walks (up to 30 minutes) are a dedicated, leash-only walk for exercise and enrichment. I’ll walk at your dog’s pace, allow time for sniff breaks, and prioritize safe leash handling the entire time. After the walk, I’ll make sure your dog is settled with fresh water and I’ll send photo updates and a recap (including potty info). **If your dog needs feeding, medication, or extended playtime, those are best booked as a drop-in visit so I can follow your full care routine.

About: Hey! I’m Kassie, and my baby is Boomer 🐾 We’re a dog-loving household with a steady routine, lots of affection, and plenty of time for walks, play, and snuggles. I’m the kind of sitter who sends pics, gives frequent potty breaks, and makes sure your pup feels safe and spoiled (in the best way). Boomer is my built-in “assistant,” so I’m already in full dog-mom mode daily—your dog will fit right in. I currently have a hybrid job and am home more than not, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. I can easily work pet care into my routine with regular potty breaks, playtime, and a calm, comfortable environment. I would love to spend my weekends loving on your babies—weekends are perfect for extra cuddles, walks, and quality time. In my home, I follow your pet’s exact routine (feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, meds if needed) and provide a safe, cozy environment with lots of attention. I work a hybrid schedule and am home more than not, so pets aren’t left alone for long—and I love spending weekends loving on your babies. I also have my dog Boomer, and I always do safe, slow introductions. In your home, I keep things consistent with your normal routine—meals, walks, play, potty breaks, and cuddles—plus photo updates each visit.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a young kid. Growing around dogs.I currently have a standard poodle named gunner I rescued him when he was 7 months old and he’s my best friend now! I take him on daily walks, endless snuggles, and lots of love! I have also taken care of family friends dogs for extended periods of time and neighbors as well! They have put their trust into me to take care of their beloved pet and I would love to take care of your babies too!! My weekends are also open in case a quick trip is planned. I am a full-time student and also have an office job, but my schedule is flexible enough that I’m able to do drop-in visits during the day as needed. I will also be staying in Fayetteville for the summer, so I’ll have consistent availability. I also have a friendly dog named Gunner who is great with other pets and helps create a calm, comfortable environment for visiting animals. My home has a secure backyard, so your pet will have a safe and comfortable space to play and relax while in my care. I’m happy to take them on as many walks as needed and give them all the love and snuggles they want, making sure they feel right at home!
About: I have loved and raised animals as an adult for 20+ years. As an adult, I have cared for my hoo-man kids, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, indoor rabbits, and chickens! I have also done long term dog fostering in my home for a few months. My home is cat and dog friendly with a built-in, gated, doggy-den under the stairwell (used as a night kennel and day napping area). I have a fenced one acre property and the back yard is entirely fenced with 6' wood privacy fencing. For over two years, we have rented our backyard on SniffSpot as a private dog park (while we and our animals stay inside during their 1-hour reservation). My home has great windows for squirrel and bird watching. We have a large home where doggy day care and boarding pets will also get the love and attention from my husband and our teenagers (no children age 12 or younger in the house). We have loved many pets over the years. Right now we only have one cat, who can be kept completely separated from your animals the entire time I board them. I do not work outside the home, so I have a flexible schedule at home allowing me to provide in-home pet sitting at my property, or to check on your fur-babies throughout the day. My teens and I enjoy volunteering with cats at our local shelters and we used to volunteer with horses (cleaning stalls, brushing, and cleaning their yard). During my childhood I lived and help care for several different dogs, cats, rats, birds, chickens, and hogs. I dog walked in elementary school for a neighbor. Then at age 18 I began overnight house alone and pet sitting for households with dogs and horses. I am currently a stay at home parent, most recently working a remote job from home. I have a flexible schedule to care for pets in my home, or check on your fur-babies at your home. I have a fenced one acre lot which is also rented to dog owners on SniffSpot. We are home during the day and can provide frequent potty breaks and attention. Our children are age 13+ are great with dog and cats and have always lived with pets and helped care for them. We have done long-term dog fostering in our home, and we loved our 110+ pound older dog rescues in our doggy retirement home until they crossed the rainbow bridge. We have one cat, who can be kept in a separate bedroom if one of our new house-pet guests needs space. My children have been dog sitting for a neighbor in their home for over a year for feeding, potty breaks, and enrichment in the yard with them. My kids and I look forward to pet-sitting in our home again, or providing enrichment and attention to the pets at your home during your travels.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with a very flexible schedule and an active lifestyle. I love being outdoors and spending time walking, playing, and exploring with dogs. I live on acreage with plenty of open space and private trails where your dog can get lots of exercise and fresh air. I’m happy to walk dogs leashed or unleashed—whatever you prefer and feel most comfortable with. If your dog is more of a couch potato than an athlete, that’s perfectly fine too! I have plenty of experience with older, calm, and low-energy pets and am happy to match whatever pace fits your dog’s personality—whether that’s an adventure walk or just relaxing together at home. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every dog like part of my family and make sure they get the attention and routine they need. Communication is a top priority for me. You’ll receive frequent updates, photos, and messages so you always feel connected while you’re away. Please note: I don’t stay overnight at clients’ homes, but I’m happy to offer walks, drop-ins, daycare, and extended daytime visits. I look forward to caring for your furry family member! With a flexible daily schedule, I can give your dog consistent care and companionship instead of rushing in and out. Your pet will always be a priority in my day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. I am reliable, responsible, follow instructions carefully, and always treat every dog like my own.
About: I’ve have worked with many dogs some with special needs like diabetes and cancer. I’ve had also worked with many senior dogs. Will give medication if needed.

My highest priority is safety on walks and when pet sitting. My schedule is fairly flexible. I am available M-Sun 7am-11pm for either dog walking, pet sitting, or overnight care. I am willing to travel as well. When I care for pets at my clients homes, I ensure that the pets are safe number one. If they are crated, I ensure that they have access to water and/or food. Also that there are no household items that they can ingest, etc. Also that they have their favorite toys and treats.
About: I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant as well as Fear Free Certified and have been taking care of animals of all kinds and abilities for several years.

I am an animal mom myself and definitely understand making sure that they have the best care and treatment, and will guarantee that your pets have the same treatment I would expect for mine! I’m currently working part time but also in school to receive my undergraduate degree in pre-veterinary poultry sciences, but I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I have a flexible schedule usually and will be able to check in morning and night as well as throughout the day most likely. If you need someone to house sit as well as care for the animals that is no problem. I am very active and love to take dogs for walks and play for a long time especially with those high energy pups! I am also very comfortable administering medication or any medical care if needed for pets that might need a little extra help. As much as I love those high energy pups I am also a big fan of the seniors and strive to make sure that they are always well taken care of! If there are other animals in your home I am comfortable taking care of them aswell, just make sure to let me know before hand. With any animals all I ask is that you give me your specific instructions about each animal, what they eat, medications, personality, dog friendly?, etc. Just a little bio about your animals.
“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Truly can’t say enough good things about Chelsea and the care she gave my pups! She was able to help me out last minute and I’m so glad I stumbled across her page! She is a great communicator, quick to respond, lots of updates and pictures so you can see your fur babies enjoying their time. Love the little “report card” with their walk time, distance and route! Trust Chelsea, your pets will be in great hands!”

I have a special place in my heart for animals, and absolutely understand the want for a sitter that will love on your babies as much as you do! I am currently available almost all day everyday, and most weekends. On the occasion that I have errands to run, I am more than happy to take your love bug with me if they don’t like to stay home alone! I have two fur babies for your pets to hangout with (if he/she does good with other dogs)!One is big, one is small, and they are both inside dogs! We take them outside to play ball through the day and on plenty of walks! I have a fenced yard and walking paths all through my neighborhood! My parents live close, and my dogs love them just as much, so if your pets prefer to be by themselves that’s totally doable!! I’m pretty flexible, so I can give them as much or as little exercise as needed! If you’d prefer me be at your home, that’s perfectly fine as well!
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of attentiveness, patience, and genuine care I bring to every pet I work with. I don’t just “watch” pets — I learn their routines, quirks, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I have extensive experience with small and senior dogs, including my own 12-year-old mini poodle, so I’m very comfortable with gentle handling, medication routines, mobility support, and calming anxious pups. I understand that older dogs and shy pets need a slower pace, consistency, and lots of reassurance — and that’s exactly what I provide. I’m also reliable, detail-oriented, and communicative. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in calm, capable hands. Whether your dog is playful, timid, energetic, or just wants to nap next to someone kind, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel right at home. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. 🐾 I work from home and keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks, feedings, playtime, medication, and potty breaks on a consistent routine. Whether it's early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening care, I plan my time so your pet's needs always come first. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I take time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so I can provide calm, consistent care. In your home, I follow your instructions closely, respect your space, and double-check doors, gates, and leashes to keep everything secure. In my home, pets are treated like family in a safe, cozy, and supervised environment with plenty of structure, play, rest, and affection. I also send regular updates and photos so you always feel confident and connected while you're away.

About: Animals have always been a part of my life; from having my own, to living on farms, to caring for other's animals, and even working with them. I have cared for dogs, cats, horses, fish, birds, hermit crabs, and gerbils/hamsters. Animals have always been a great joy in my life, and I hope to bring some joy to their lives in return. :) My animals are my whole entire world, and I promise to treat your animals as if they were mine as well. You can count on me to keep your pets happy and safe! ❤️ I currently have three kitties of my own who are my babies 💕 They are honestly my life, idk what I would do without them. 💖 At home, our kitties get daily playtime with toys as well as occasional supervised outside time in the backyard. Of course, they also get all the love and pets they can handle! I am happy to help out with extra errands as well if need be! I can help with garden/plant care, grocery pickups/delivery, vet appointment transport, etc! I'm happy to provide help outside of my distance range for an additional fee. (Prices are negotiable, I understand everyone's budget is different. Discounts available for extended stays/services.) Animals bring so much joy to my life that I have decided to pursue a path that allows me to be around them even more! I only hope that I can bring them a fraction of the joy they bring me. As I have decided to pursue this as my career, aside from occasional personal plans, I will be fully available to help you and your fur babies whenever you need! :) I am more than happy to do anything the pets need to feel safe and happy while in my care. Your pets will get all the treats, brushes, pets, walks, playtime with their favorite toy, and love I have to offer! I will also stay in contact with you to give you text and picture updates so you can have peace of mind, knowing that your babies are happy and well taken care of! ❤️

I have a heart for all kinds of animals, especially older dogs. I love cats too! I am a full time teacher but I am able to be flexible as much as possible! I am willing to go before school and after school as needed. My current living situation doesn’t allow me to have guest animals at my home. However, I wouldn’t want to make your fur baby uncomfortable in anyway and they would be more comfy in their own space!
About: I love animals and have had dogs my entire life, I have had mainly medium to large dogs, along with a Great Pyrenees dog. I love getting to play and love on new dogs because they are so sweet. Dogs really are mans best friend. I personally have trained puppies very successfully with potty training and telling me when they need to go outside. I have plenty of dog toys at my home but dogs can always bring their own too. I am use to walking dogs for a long time my dog has a lot of energy so most of our walks are about 45 mins minimum. I can also handle watching or walking multiple dogs at a time so if you need more than one dog walked at a time I can do that also.

“I had a wonderful experience with Miranda and her husband. Great communication, i got lots of videos and pictures and they were flexible with my times for pick up. My dog was well loved and cared for with them. I’ll be using them in the future.”
“We love leaving Ford with Tiffany and her family. He always has the best time, and we know he is safe and well cared for. We are thankful he has a place he feels welcome. He is excited when we pull up to her house!”
“I didn’t expect my cat to do well with boarding. She’s a very anxious creature. A scaredy cat in the truest sense! Christopher and Jennie did everything in their power to make her feel at home, and I know they did a good job because she bounced back very quickly once we got back home, which has never happened with other boardings! She’s been prone to hiding for days after past experiences, but that didn’t happen here. Thanks for taking care of my best friend, guys. She may not have been super receptive to it, but I know she appreciated you regardless.”
“Jasmine was great to Diggs and sent lots of updates and pictures! Diggs loved playing with her dog, Milo too! She even went the extra mile to help Diggs eat when he was more interested in playing.”
“Tracy was amazing with Olive—so attentive and communicative, with lots of photo updates that gave me total peace of mind. Olive was clearly well cared for and happy. I’d absolutely recommend Tracy and would book with her again!”
“Ashlee was fantastic. She watched our dogs over memorial day weekend. She was attentive, asked questions about their care, and was open to any concerns/questions I had. She sent me pictures all weekend and updated me on how they were doing!! And she was very flexible when our flight got delayed to come pick them up. Our pups were happy and clean when we picked them up! I highly recommend Ashlee!!!!”
“I can't say enough good things about Layne and how she took care of my dog. She treated him like one of her own. It was obvious when I picked Ford up that he had a great time. He was extremely relaxed and happy. I know he was comfortable and safe our whole trip. Layne also kept me updated with pictures and feedback. It was perfect! (And I'm a worrier! 😂)”
“1000/10!!! I had been so busy with work I forgot to book dog sitting days before my international trip. Lillian came to the rescue and was so flexible, and put my mind at ease. My baby Eevee had so much fun and I will be rebooking in the future!!”
“Alicen was AMAZING with Dan!! Helped us out in a last minute Hail Mary on a Holiday weekend as well!! Could never recommend someone more! Danny played so well with her 2 pups and Alicen kept us very well updated with pictures!!”
“Everything was seamless, from meet and greet to pickup and drop off, Bianca made me feel secure with leaving my dog in her care. Constant communication with texts and pictures was just what I needed to reassure myself he was in great hands. As someone who normally takes their dog everywhere or has family watching him, I was totally confident I made the right choice with Bianca. I would definitely recommend and rebook with her any time.”
“What a wonderful experience for our first Rover stay! Jen was quick to reply to my message(s) and very accommodating with scheduling. During the stay I got lots of photos and videos of my Coco and their pup playing and hanging out together. Drop off and pick up was super easy and during that time I met most of the family. They are so lovely and have a beautiful home.”
“We really appreciated having Sharon watch Koko. She was great about sending pictures and letting us know how our dog baby was doing. We really enjoy our trip because we didn't have to worry we knew that our dog was in a loving home.”
