“Ari, Alice’s daughter, was great! Very communicative and worked with us to make sure our dog Possum took his meds. He came back happy and healthy!! Would definitely have them watch him again next time we come to town.”
“Geri was the best! Don't be fooled by her stern-looking profile photo; she is anything but! Super stylish and kind, with a huge heart. Our Roxy was very happy with her stay with Geri, and her home is beautiful, and every detail was accounted for in making it super doggy friendly. Her lil pup is also very sweet and got along very well with our picky, not-usually-a-dog-person dog, Roxy, which says a lot. Anyway, look no further, we highly recommend choosing Geri for your doggy needs!!”
“Judith was amazing. She was very good at communicating and sent me lots of pictures of my dog (even though my dog is camera shy). She was really flexible and worked with me when my schedule changed a bit. I will be picking to send Vexy to her house next time we need a Rover.”
“Dropped my dog off for the week for a Disney trip I was last minute but they were able to accommodate him still they were great with him and made sure he had plenty of time to play and hangout with the other dogs and kids and made sure to send pictures and keep me updated on the trip. I 1000% recommend them for any trips as they truly know how to take care of your pet like it’s there own.”
“Sam and his partner Darrell took such great care of our little 14-year-old Chihuahua, Bentley. We could not have asked for more caring, understanding and attention for our little guy who has heart difficulties and is on three medications. We received multiple pictures daily and assurances that he was eating and all was well! We had so much peace of mind the week of our daughters wedding in Palm Springs, knowing our little guy was in such great hands. We will be calling on Sam each time we go to the desert now, instead of worrying about what to do for dog sitting. They are the kings of little dogs!❣️?❣️??”
“Nueva was a lovely sitter for Johnny. He really enjoyed his stay with her. She updated us throughout the week with texts and pictures, so we could enjoy our vacation knowing that our little dog was having a good time. Would highly recommend, and we will definitely use Nueva again if we travel without our dog.”
“We were so fortunate to have Aricela watch our foster dog when we had to travel out of the area u expectedly. She accommodated a last minute meet & greet and patiently listened to everything we knew about the dog. She was kind in her interactions with our pup. When we took him back to board he was like a confident kindergartner…one look over his shoulder and away he went! She kept us apprised of how he was doing & send photos to validate it. Thank you so much Araceli.”
“Highly recommend, we will definitely continue to use them when we have to go out of town. They are highly communicative and send tons of pics and videos of your pooch to keep you updated while away.”
“Jackson and his home was a great and safe place for us to leave our puppy, Monty. Monty was tired and happy when we came to collect, which was the sign of a great time! Jackson and his family are well versed in all things dog care and both super responsive and accommodating to all timing needs. Would throughly recommend to anyone looking to leave their four legged children in good hands.”
“We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Tony provided for our crazy puppy. From the moment we met him, we felt at ease and we knew our dog would be in great hands. He provided frequent updates, ensured our dog got plenty of exercise and affection, and even went the extra mile to accommodate any special needs. We felt at ease knowing our puppy was in such capable and loving hands. We highly recommend Tony to anyone seeking top-notch care for their pet and will definitely use him again if we’re in the area!!!”
“Our 2 year old Basset, Odie, had the time of his life. He and Todd and his 2 Shih Tzu bonded instantly. Video updates showed how much Odie was enjoying his stay. Thank you Todd. Absolutely the best!”
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and have been a huge animal lover my whole life. I’ve always been a sitter for friends and family in need and figured I might as well expand my services. I have a big home and yard, with plenty of grass and room to run. Our home is very pet friendly, and they pretty much are free to roam as they please. My husband and I keep the home clean, but cozy. We have kids, cats, and dogs and everyone gets along. We keep the upstairs blocked off so the cats have their own space to play and relax. There are tile floors for a cool place to nap, dog beds, cat trees, and plenty of toys. I’m a nurse and CPR certified, so your fur baby is safe with me. I only ask that your pet is friendly, and if you have a dog that they are a minimal barker as we like to keep our neighbors happy. I can help with potty training, bathing, and medicines too…whatever your pet needs. All you need to provide is your pets favorite food. I’ll take care of the rest. I work part time as a nurse, usually during the nights and my husband is a stay at home dad. I have plenty of time and energy to devote to your fur baby. I have a large home and yard with plenty of grass. There are also several dog parks within our community for your fur baby to play.
“Katie took wonderful care of my special needs dog in a short notice situation. She was very easy to communicate and was flexible with me on pick up and drop off. She sent me lots of pictures during my dog's stay and checked in with me often. I can't recommend her enough! Most people would not open their home to a medical special needs dog but Katie did without a second thought. Thanks again for the wonderful experience. So grateful to have found you”
“Matt is awesome! Our dogs are very happy and comfortable with them. Communication is excellent and he send me pictures . I will definitely book him again. Highly recommended!”

“Aprils been amazing taking care of my kitty gorgeous she’s worked and working with me during a very rough time in my life and has been super friendly the entire time even letting me come by to visit her if I wished”
“SO grateful to have found Ken! He couldn’t have been better in communicating with me from the get go! During our time away he checked in daily with photos. We left our 2 elderly dogs (1 has no teeth) and he handled his special food needs, and kept them both on their schedules. One has separation anxiety and Ken tuned into it and provided a loving attentive & calm environment even allowing him to sleep on his bed at night! When we picked them up they were so calm & peaceful and to me this was the result of very exceptional care! You need look no further for a wonderful place to leave your fur children!”

“James was a huge help watching our kitty while we traveled. He watched Wolfie with great care giving him a daily dose of medicine, filling water and food and cleaning the litter box. James was always communicative and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!”
“With plans to be away from home for two weeks, we panicked to find a person to care for a stray cat -- Bruno -- we adopted. (Yes, I know this is Rover.com!) Being an outdoor cat, we expected to have difficulty finding a person to fit the bill. We couldn't have been more wrong. Briana was absolutely amazing. She understood the unusual nature of the issue and stepped in to ensure that Bruno was fed, socialized, and kept on a routine. Her communications and photos of Bruno's antics were the highlight of every day and eased our minds that it was "business as usual" as far as Bruno was concerned. Of course, we hope she's available whenever we travel since we wouldn't consider anybody else. We wholeheartedly recommend Briana for her intuitive approach, love of animals and steadfast reliability.”
“Basia was a great pet sitter and I really appreciated her trekking out so far into the desert to keep my kitties fed and watered! She was always on time and kept me apprised of how my babies were doing”

“Ashurina helped me out of a jam, was needing to head out of town last min. She came by the same day I called her to meet with myself and my 2 girls (fur baby cats). She checked in and updated me, sent pictures and had my 2 cats engaged during her drop in. Thank you so much.”

“Faith was amazing and very communicative! This was my first time using Rover and I was going to be gone for 12 days. She always kept me informed how my two kitties were doing and sent pics. She even stopped by for an extra visit when one of my cats was hiding for a few days and we were worried she trapped herself in somewhere. I would definitely use her again in the future 😉”

“Cesar is amazing!! He took care of my three cats while we were out of town for our wedding, over the past 9 days our kitties were in great care with Cesar’s drop in visits! He went above and beyond our expectations. Truly kept the litter boxes clean and swept around them! He changed their food and water and made sure they were safe! Cesar is trust worthy and respectful! He kept us updated throughout the whole process, sending us lots of loving photos and even keeping us updated on the weather! He is soo kind and truly loves animals, we have gold fish here too, even thou we were feeding them pebbles with the automatic feeder he noticed the fish and added some bounce flacks when he visited (out of the kindness of his heart). SO NICE! If you are looking for someone to care for your pets, I HIGHLY recommend Cesar he is very knowledgeable and caring, he followed every step I gave him and went beyond that. He even offered to have a free meet and great so the animals could get to know him! SO THOUGHTFUL. unfortunately my tight schedule wouldn’t allow it but, it’s the thought he puts in that counts! Thank you so much Cesar you are a true blessing to us and our animals! Until next time! 💕”
“Elaine was able to visit my cats at our home. Everything was coordinated and planned, the process was straight forward. Like the past appointment with Elaine she was wonderful to work with and I hope to use her services again in the future when traveling.”

“I've never left my new rescue dog with anyone and I didn't think he'd do well with a lot of dogs at a normal day care because he can get overwhelmed and defensive. Judith is a dog person. She understands them and was a great sitter. Once Goedy and her dog got to know each other they played and wrestled all day! I felt very comfortable knowing he was in a safe place and also having fun. Would 1000% leave my pup with Judith again.”
“We loved Louise! She took Lizzie at the last minute so we could ride the Tramway and it went well so we brought her back again to go to Joshua Tree NP. When we arrived that second day Lizzie couldn't wait to get out the Van. She was fussing because it was taking me too long to put on her leash. She ran into the yard with Louise full of joy. Louise has a wonderful back yard with grass and shade. She sent photos of Lizzie throughout the day and we felt 100% at ease leaving her. We will use her again when we're back in town.”
“Geraldine was very flexible and willing to take our beagle on a short notice. Geraldine was booked 24 hrs in advance to watch Honey while my husband & I went to a spa. We booked Geraldine for another successful evening of dog sitting in her home during our vacation in Palm Springs. Geraldine was a good match for dog sitting our chill 8 1/2 year old beagle. (We tipped her in cash, not using the Rover app).”
“Katie took great care of our Golden Retriever Marvin She came highly recommended from friends that have used her several times. What a blessing to have found her. Our boy was completely worn out from doggy play yesterday. I thank you again Katie. Our minds were completely and ease knowing you were taking care of our special boy.”
“Tony took care of my sweet girl during our stair at Palmer Springs it was so good to find him as Tala sitter as he treated with care and love towards my pup. I recommend him to everyone. Thank you, Tony!”
“Today was Termie’s first doggie day care visit with Stephen. Even though I had a really nice meet and greet with him last week, I was still a little nervous about leaving my baby with any new person. But with Stephen I felt good because he’s had a few Toy Poodles himself and we shared pictures of our Toy Poodles with each other. When I dropped Termie off very early this morning (6am), Stephen welcomed me and Termie and reassured me all would be fine. And when I came back at the end of the day to pick him up, Stephen and I shared some more stories about Toy Poodles for about 20 minutes… and sure enough, my dog was actually ignoring me and sitting in his lap the whole time we chatted. At that moment, seeing my dog stay by his side instead of mine, I knew Stephen and Termie had bonded and that Termie must have been well cared for. I can’t express how relieved I am to have found somebody who knows and appreciates Toy Poodles, but also a sitter who is very kind and friendly. It was just a great first day experience and I am so happy my dog will be staying with him a couple days each week. Thank you again Stephen for being so nice to both me and Termie. I can’t thank you enough!”

I have 2 pups of my own, a poodle mix and a Dalmatian/Great Dane :) I’ve also taken care of my friends and families pets including puppies, a kitten and some aquatic turtles and fish while they traveled!!

“Eric was amazing with our dog! Took him on walks and sent a bunch of updates throughout the day. Provided supplies and had a very nice yard. Will definitely use Eric again as a sitter!”
“Luz was the most wonderful, sweet and perfect sitter for our Lily. We really lucked out as she took us last minute. Lily enjoyed her stay and we got to see cute pictures of her exploring Luz’s beautiful garden. Thank you Luz without your wonderful care, we wouldn’t have been able to hike Joshua Tree 💗 highly recommend!! 100/10 😊”
“What a wonderful experience with Alfonso being there at the last minute to help with my dogs while at Joshua Tree. He was a great caretaker, very kind and great with my girls. I will definitely recommend Alfonso and request his help in the future! 5 stars.”
“Andranise was so nice, communicated efficiently, and most important of all my dog loved her and felt very comfortable with her I would definitely recommend her as a sitter. It's a breathe of fresh air to find someone that can love your dog as much we do and take great care of them.”

“Viviana and her family are amazing. They took such fantastic care of my boy. Since he is a special needs dog, it takes someone special to give him the care he needs. Viviana did a fantastic job. I think he wanted to stay with her more than coming back home with me lol! I will be coming back to Viviana whenever my boy needs boarding or other care. Thank you!”
“Although my daughter's service dog goes with us everywhere, we decided it was best to leave him in capable hands while we enjoyed a tip to the Living Desert near Palm Springs, CA. Nuvea was available last minute to care for Huckleberry in her home. He enjoyed a play date with a few fellow canines and a cat. Nuvea was able to accommodate treat time and dinner for him and excursions in her backyard. When we returned Huckleberry was happy and ready to resume his care for his girl. We were pleased he had a safe and cool home to rest in while in our absence. I highly recommend Nuvea and her happy pup safe home for care.”
“Kevin was incredible with Romeo on his first daycare sit! It was so fun for Romeo our dog and Kevin because they played in the oool. Romeo loves to be toweled off and from the looks of it he really got dry because there were 6 pool towels all nearly hung in our outdoor drying rack which Kevin tikkbapon himself to find in our laundry area. The house was all tidy because Kevin knew we had house guests arriving. He is very calm and engaged well with his clients and their pets. Highly recommend.”

“Jon was incredibly accommodating on a short notice request by us. We came to vacation in Palm Springs and were unaware we could not leave our dog in the hotel room unattended. I immediately messaged Jon and he quickly responded. He was flexible on drop off and pick up as well. I’m so thankful for him! He made our trip less stressful by taking care of our Togo for two days. Highly highly recommend!”

About: I did start taking care of pets when I was in junior high! I grew up with beagles; I think I’m a fourth generation beagle owner, and my dog Lear is truly a wonderful host . He adores everybody, and they all seem to love him, too. My backyard is essentially for the pups , several lounging areas for the perfect noon time sunbath. We also love the dog park. I’m a senior who spends majority of my time at home with my pups. Lots of attention and interaction , and backyard breaks . Pup heaven! I have a lovely fenced in backyard, and my own pups love sunning themselves all times of the day. I’m normally always home except for quick trips to the grocery store or an occasional lunch out ; otherwise I’m here , hands-on!

“Gabe is amazing!! We have a Great Dane and she absolutely adores him! He comes every day, twice a day and he is always on time, so kind and friendly and the dog lets out a howl of joy every time he approaches the door. I’m so grateful that we connected and can’t imagine daily life without his care for our pup! Highly highly highly recommend his services !”
“Kevin is unbelievably kind and wonderful -such a nice man and just helpful beyond belief. My dog is definitely having an adjustment period and does not want to leave her mama. He has been incredibly patient with her trying everything he can to get her to trust him and actually leave the house with him. We’ll get there and it’s all because of his patience and flexibility -again his senior dog expertise is beyond compare.”
“Faith was great. She was available on short notice and my kiddos didn’t even bark at her in spite of the face mask she was wearing! Dexter enjoyed his walk very much and slept very well last night.?”
“Briana was fantastic! Her love for dogs, her communication and care are top notch. She sent me lots of photos of Riley and Ollie on their walk and she made sure both of them had water and some treats before leaving. We will definitely be booking Briana from now on for all of our dog sitting needs.”
“Our dog just loves Christopher! She gets so excited when he arrives that he has to wait a few minutes for her to calm down. We have had Christopher both walk and house sit and he has been consistently wonderful. He always does little extra things to help out and make sure our girl has a great and safe experience.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and therefore our first time having Jon walk our dog. We asked Jon to come by each day at 7, as it gets pretty hot here in the desert quite early in the morning. Sammi is used to hour long walks as well. We can say Jon did not disappoint! He was at our house every morning at 7 on the nose and gave our Sammi a full hour walk each day. They walked a mile plus on each journey and Sammi looked forward to seeing him every day. Could not have asked for a better experience!”

I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos.
About: My hours are 8 am to 6 pm. If you really care for your pet, give them the BEST. I am not a boarding kennel. I take only SEVERAL PETS at any given time so that they can receive my FULL PERSONAL ATTENTION. I WORK FROM HOME SO AM ALWAYS AVAILABLE. If this is the type of attention you feel your special pets deserve, call me. Leaving the area for a vacation or visiting beautiful Palm Springs, why not let your favorite pet enjoy a little rest and relaxation in the desert? Your loving friend will receive VIP care and attention 24/7 in my beautifully landscaped yard enclosed by an 8 foot brick wall. They will have access to two separate yards through two doggy doors. Space is limited so that your dog receives personal attention. Any special feeding habits, veterinarian contacts and vaccinations are requested. I look forward to talking and meeting with both you and your pets. If possible, a "Meet and Greet would be recommended to acclimate your pets to my environment, helping them to better adjust to something new in their schedule. I work at home so have plenty of time and attention to play with your fur babies, I am available for boarding seven days a week. I have a high brick walled yard. My environment is very safe and secure and over 15 years have never had a pet escape. I can always crate your dog if needed.
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I dog-sat a Goldendoodle for two weeks, providing daily walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Additionally, I cat-sat three cats in Costa Rica, ensuring they were well-fed, comfortable, and received plenty of attention. These experiences have helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility and a calm, caring approach to pet care. I have open availability for pet sitting and related responsibilities, with the exception of one college class. My schedule is flexible, and I'm able to accommodate most timeframes, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. I prioritize each pet’s safety and well-being at all times. I follow all instructions closely, keep a close eye on pets during walks, and make sure doors, gates, and any hazardous areas are properly secured. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and attentive experience for every pet in my care.
About: I was working at an animal hospital and have a degree in veterinary science so I have plenty of experience with animals. I now work from home and have a house with a doggy door and two side yards that are all accessible and fully enclosed with a brick wall. I do have an older dog who is friendly with others and keeps to herself. I am fully capable of administering any medications and/or injecting insulin as needed. I am very attentive and passionate with the animals and have professional references to attest to that. I now work full time from home so I have ample time to keep your four legged friends company while I’m working. There won’t be a dull moment! My yard is completely fenced and accessible with a doggy door to ensure the pets have plenty of space to run and use the bathroom when needed. I do have a pool.
About: Hey I’m Nat! I have 2 pups of my own, a poodle mix and a Dalmatian/Great Dane :) I’ve also taken care of my friends and families pets including puppies, a kitten and some aquatic turtles and fish while they traveled!! Im self employed so i work on my own schedule from home!! Gives me lots of free time to take your pups on walks and/or care for them in my home. I have a fenced yard and both my pups are socialized/ crate trained as well as having different parts of my home closed off so I’d be able to keep your pup safe depending on their needs whether they do best without other pups or are social and wanna play.

“Ari, Alice’s daughter, was great! Very communicative and worked with us to make sure our dog Possum took his meds. He came back happy and healthy!! Would definitely have them watch him again next time we come to town.”
“Judith was amazing. She was very good at communicating and sent me lots of pictures of my dog (even though my dog is camera shy). She was really flexible and worked with me when my schedule changed a bit. I will be picking to send Vexy to her house next time we need a Rover.”
“Dropped my dog off for the week for a Disney trip I was last minute but they were able to accommodate him still they were great with him and made sure he had plenty of time to play and hangout with the other dogs and kids and made sure to send pictures and keep me updated on the trip. I 1000% recommend them for any trips as they truly know how to take care of your pet like it’s there own.”
“Highly recommend, we will definitely continue to use them when we have to go out of town. They are highly communicative and send tons of pics and videos of your pooch to keep you updated while away.”
“Jackson and his home was a great and safe place for us to leave our puppy, Monty. Monty was tired and happy when we came to collect, which was the sign of a great time! Jackson and his family are well versed in all things dog care and both super responsive and accommodating to all timing needs. Would throughly recommend to anyone looking to leave their four legged children in good hands.”
“We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Tony provided for our crazy puppy. From the moment we met him, we felt at ease and we knew our dog would be in great hands. He provided frequent updates, ensured our dog got plenty of exercise and affection, and even went the extra mile to accommodate any special needs. We felt at ease knowing our puppy was in such capable and loving hands. We highly recommend Tony to anyone seeking top-notch care for their pet and will definitely use him again if we’re in the area!!!”
“Our 2 year old Basset, Odie, had the time of his life. He and Todd and his 2 Shih Tzu bonded instantly. Video updates showed how much Odie was enjoying his stay. Thank you Todd. Absolutely the best!”
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and have been a huge animal lover my whole life. I’ve always been a sitter for friends and family in need and figured I might as well expand my services. I have a big home and yard, with plenty of grass and room to run. Our home is very pet friendly, and they pretty much are free to roam as they please. My husband and I keep the home clean, but cozy. We have kids, cats, and dogs and everyone gets along. We keep the upstairs blocked off so the cats have their own space to play and relax. There are tile floors for a cool place to nap, dog beds, cat trees, and plenty of toys. I’m a nurse and CPR certified, so your fur baby is safe with me. I only ask that your pet is friendly, and if you have a dog that they are a minimal barker as we like to keep our neighbors happy. I can help with potty training, bathing, and medicines too…whatever your pet needs. All you need to provide is your pets favorite food. I’ll take care of the rest. I work part time as a nurse, usually during the nights and my husband is a stay at home dad. I have plenty of time and energy to devote to your fur baby. I have a large home and yard with plenty of grass. There are also several dog parks within our community for your fur baby to play.
About: GROWING UP, MY MOM ONLY ALLOWED US TO HAVE CATS AS PETS. WHEN I WAS 20-YEARS OLD, I ADOPTED MY FIRST PUPPY FROM THE LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK ANIMAL SHELTER. HE WAS AN AKITA/GERMAN SHEPPARD MIX & WE HAD HIM FOR 17-YEARS UNTIL WE HAD TO PUT HIM TO SLEEP 😞. I ADOPTED 4 OTHER PUPPIES AFTER THAT. I EMJOY THE COMPANY OF PETS MORE THEN I ENJOY THE COMPANY OF PEOPLE LOL 😂. PETS ARE MORE LOYAL. I KNOW THAT WE ALL TREAT OUR PETS LIKE OUR CHILDREN, SO WE SHOULD SPARE NO EXPENSE WHEN IT COMES TO PET SITTING/BOARDING. I AM CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED, SO MY SCHEDULE IS COMPLETELY OPEN. ALSO, MY PROFESSION IS WORKING AS EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT, SO I GET TO WORK REMOTELY. I CAN PROVIDE THE BEST CARE & ATTENTION ACCORDING TO MY SCHEDULE. OUR PROPERTY HAS AN EAST & WEST LAWN AREA THAT IS FENCED IN & SAFE. WE HAVE 3 VERY FRIENDLY & LOVABLE DOGS (6-YEAR OLD WHITE GERMAN SHEPPARD, 13-YEAR OLD COTTON DETULIA & 6-MONTH OLD BOXER). SAFETY & TRUST IS ALWAYS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF PET SITTING/BOARDING. MAKING SURE THAT BOTH HUMAN & PET ARE HAPPY & GET ALONG.
“My Bernedoodle- Hattie had the best time with “Bo” the sitter, and Oreo the dog! I had my dog groomed before dropping her off, and they split her nail when trimming it. Bo, immediately put a clear cone of shame on her. And kept cleaning the area up and applied bedydine on the area. I picked her up last night, she was happy but limping. Took her to her Vet this afternoon, the Vet said, everything he did helped with a great outcome! Thank you Bo & Oreo! We will see you soon!”
“Our dog, Frizzle, seemed to have a great stay! It was clear that Lacey cares very much about the dogs in her care. We would definitely have Frizzle stay with Lacey on our next trip out to Joshua Tree!”
“kevin was very attentive and wanted to make sure he kept our pups’ routine the same. he was patient with our nervous pup. his pups were excellent with our dogs too. he is very responsive. would book with kevin again!”
“WOW - Brandon is awesome and we are so lucky to have connected with him! Brandon took care of Max while we were out of the country for 5 days and provided us with twice daily photos and stories about his days and nights that allowed to enjoy our vacation without worry or guilt. He agreed to an early drop off and met us at the door ready to go and had Max packed up and at the door for pickup at the end of his stay. Max was glad to see us, and it was also very clear that he enjoyed his time with Brandon. We'll be back!”
“I feel so very lucky to know Brandon and Billy. They cared for Kepler like he is their own pup. They pet sit for the love of dogs. Kepler was so happy to see them and had a great time. Our fluffy guy was very safe at their fully fenced home and welcome to run around like a crazy man. 10/10 Stars!”
“Michael was great on all counts…communications, responsiveness, photo updates…all of it. And Louie seemed to enjoy his time at his new Rover, found because we moved. We already have a week long stay booked and are thrilled that we will feel better about our travel knowing Louie is in good hands.”
“I couldn't be happier with Larry's care of the kids and neither could the kids. My elderly Westie came home very perky after his stay. The lab had a new friend to play with and our little girl was treated like the princess she thinks she is. I highly recommend Larry to sit your furry friends.”
“Worked with me an absolutely insane amount on just about everything. Texted me updates and all that, really just did everything. Could not have felt more comfortable leaving her anywhere else or with anyone else”
