“Saying I am satisfied and overly happy with Gordie's stay at Allyson's house can never be enough to show how much I truly loved Gordie's boarding with Allyson. I never felt Gordie was left alone or disengaged. She sent multiple pictures to prove this. She treated him like one of the family and I am sure he actually FELT like he was one of the family! I was afraid he wouldn't want to come back home. haha. I don't have plans for a while...but when I do make some, I hope (and Gordie hopes too) that we can have Allyson watch him again, if she'll have us!”
“Nadine and her family were wonderful in taking care of our dog, Stella, while we were away. They were very attentive to Stella’s needs and personality and kept to her regular routine. Nadine kept us updated of Stella throughout her stay which is important when apart from your pets. We will definitely be using Nadine and Daniel again as dog sitters and highly recommend them to anyone considering a sitter for their pets.”
“Stefanie was absolutely amazing with my dog! This was my first time using Rover and I was pretty anxious, but she was a fantastic communicator throughout my dog's stay. We got so many adorable pictures and video updates. Her cats are super dog-friendly, and my dog got along great with them. Stefanie is very knowledgable and understands the nuances of pet care. My dog had a wonderful experience, and usually my dog is pretty anxious in new situations! She got plenty of affection, attention, and exercise. I would definitely book Stefanie again!”
“Karina kept me updated with photos daily and she took such good care of Nilla who can be a bit reactive/fearful at times. Karina assured me she would take extra care and Nilla left happy!”
“There's nobody better than Bruce for our little Sweet Pea. What a fun and loving environment. I have zero concern when leaving her with Bruce, knowing she'll be safe and happy.”
“Tatiana took great care of our Ricky boy for 4 days. She was attentive to detail, sent lots of photos and treated him like her own. Ricky is usually slow to warm up to people, but took a liking to her immediately. He also loved the fully fenced yard to run around and play! We will definitely be booking again.”
“Noemi was wonderful with my dog and accomodating to my last minute booking! She sent me daily doggy mail and updated me on his activities. She has a beautful large fenced in yard for the dogs to run around and play. Very pleasant and my dog seemed happy when i picked him up also so i know he enjoyed himself! Will definitely book with Noemi again!”
“Elizabeth is the most caring and responsible dog sitter. She gives updates with photos and always responds quickly. I was lucky to have such peace of mind on my trip.”
“Stephanie had a houseful of dogs when I dropped Kasha off for her first time there, and Kasha was a bit overwhelmed. But photos I received from Stephanie soon after showed Kasha looking calm and comfortable. Stephanie is obviously very experienced with dogs, and Kasha was well cared for. I would definitely use Stephanie again.”
“Jayme was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly flexible with our schedule and always responded quickly to our messages. We felt so at ease knowing Finnegan was in such good hands. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and that he had a great time with her dogs. We highly recommend Jayme to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”
“Catherine was wonderful with Josie, she attended to every one of her needs and treated her like the true diva that she is! She gave her her drops, her eye drops three times a day on schedule, sent me pictures and videos. I was hoping Josie would a still wanna come home with me and not stay with Catherine.!!!Sue w.”

“I recently had Jieun look after my dog and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to ensure Skippy was well cared for and comfortable. Skippy can be reserved with new people, but he quickly warmed up to Jieun. Communication was another standout aspect of the stay. I received regular updates and great photos of Skippy having a good time, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that Jieun genuinely cared about Skippy’s well-being. The level of attention and care Skippy received was outstanding. I highly recommend Jieun if you need someone to care for your pet. Skippy and I are both incredibly grateful for the exceptional stay!”
“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“Catie and her husband were able to take care of my dog when travel plans changed last minute. I was very nervous with a new sitter but they took great care of Barkley. They sent videos and pictures thru out his stay and were very responsive when I reached out to check on how he was doing. I would recommend them and use again!”

About: I’m a mother of 3 children and two fur babies, a Labrador and a tuxedo cat. In addition to caring for my own pets over the years, I have some experience with foster care as well as veterinary assistance. My schedule is flexible as I am a stay at home parent. Daytime is best but I am also available for night check ins and weekends.

About: I’ve had cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and I absolutely adore them! I’m now the proud cat mom of two sweet boys. I also regularly cat-sit for my neighbor when they’re away, caring for their cat and making sure they have everything they need while their owner is gone. I understand that cats have their own personalities, routines, and comfort levels. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers to do their own thing, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them plenty of patience, attention, and care. Tell your cat I said “pspsps”!
“Katie was great with our indoor cat! She communicated with us in a timely manner and gave updates as needed. I would definitely recommend her service - thank you Katie!”
“Sarah is the best! I have an older pup and an independent cat; right away she put my mind at ease as her experience and care for animals radiates. She communicated clearly and promptly with me from the pre-booking to after the visits. She followed every direction and went above and beyond. I loved her updates and photos; I appreciated her kindness and attention to details. My pets said they had an amazing time with her! I would recommend her and welcome her back any time.”
“Catherine took wonderful care of my boys, 2 large male cats, on 2 separate occasions. What I particularly appreciated so very much was that when I came home after being away, they were very calm and not at all needy, which is a sure sign to me that they were well taken care of. It was just so reassuring to me to know that! I will be using Catherine regularly in the future!”
“I cannot recommend Leah highly enough! Leaving my cat, Bailey, is always stressful, but Leah made it completely worry-free. I received daily updates and the cutest photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear that Bailey wasn't just being fed, but was actually getting genuine affection and he loved every minute of it. I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Moe has been so great for my pups. She stops in to let them out and play with them while I’m at work. She’s very communicative about her schedule and I get picture every time!”
About: Hi! My name is Katharine, and I’m currently a social work student working toward my bachelor’s degree with a passion for helping others, which includes animals! I’ve always loved being around pets and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and caring to look after them. I’ve owned my dog for the past 10 years, which has given me hands-on experience with daily pet care, routines, exercise, and providing lots of love and attention. I also regularly dog sit and cat sit for my neighbors, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m currently a college student out for the summer, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I have open availability 7 days a week. I’m able to be flexible with walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime to meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, playtime, and any house rules or routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and supervision while keeping the home clean and respectful. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.
About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember! Whenever friends and family need a pet sitter, I’m the first one they call! I come from a big family that includes multiple pets whether it’s 2 dogs or 2 cats I love both! It’s always my sincere goal to make sure your pets are well taken care of! I’ve pet sat for a family that to this day I still meet and hang out with their dogs! I love that bond! As always my main concern is your pets and make sure they are treated with respect and love because to me are pets are our family. I’m currently working part time at stop and shop, so I’m available currently on Monday’s and Tuesdays only.. I can do weekends but could only do so by 3:00 My work schedule is not a set schedule so if I’m not working that day, I will make sure to put that out there! And spend more play time with your pets! I have a big enough yard for my dog Benny and he loves to go outside and get treats! And a porch where we can relax and just hang out With him! I make sure every dog I take care of is on a leash but I can take it off depending on owners preference..my main priority is the safety of the pets in my care to make sure they don’t run away and are put in dangerous situations. I would also prefer to be at the owners house for now.
“Ariana was excellent! From the first message it was clear she loves cats the same way we do, so we felt completely confident booking her. She came over on her own time to meet our cats, learn how to best take care of them, and get a feel for the ins and outs of their behavior. While we were away, she sent us daily updates and photos of our cats so we knew they were in good hands the whole time. We will certainly be booking with her again!”
“Aisaia comes often to check in on my dogs while I’m at work. He’s always reliable, on time, and spends a little extra time with my dogs. I would definitely recommend him and will continue to book with him!”

About: Hi there! I’m so excited to meet you and your furry family member! I’m not just a dog sitter — I’m a true dog lover who believes dogs are family. They aren't "just pets" to me; they are loyal companions who deserve all the love, patience, and care we can give them. I live an active lifestyle and love spending time outdoors, which means plenty of playtime, walks, and adventures for your pup! Whether it's tossing a ball in the backyard, going for a stroll, or simply having cozy cuddle time inside, I’m here to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and happy every moment you're away. I provide potty breaks every two hours to make sure your dog stays comfortable and healthy. I also pay close attention to emotional needs — I understand how important it is for dogs to feel loved and secure when their people are away. Every tail wag, every happy bark, and every little paw print matters to me. When you trust me with your dog, you’re not just hiring a sitter — you’re finding someone who will love your dog like my own. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to keeping you updated with lots of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my life because dogs are like family to me. I just finished college, so I have a completely open schedule and can dedicate my full attention, love, and energy to caring for your dog all week long. Their happiness and well-being will be my top priority every day. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a big house with plenty of space for them to feel comfortable and safe. While my backyard is large and open (unfenced), I always supervise outdoor time very closely to make sure your dog stays safe and happy. I love giving them plenty of playtime, attention, and a cozy, calm environment where they can feel completely at home. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I’ll follow your routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. My goal is to make every dog feel loved, secure, and well-cared for, no matter where they are.

“Bruce was so great with our energetic husky, Khali. He really helped us out with a last minute sitter request. He spent the day with her and sent us several updates with pictures. He has a lot of property for her to explore and when we picked her up we could tell she’d had a good time. If we were local, we would definitely reach out to him again! Thank you, Bruce!”
“Noemi and her family took great care of my dog while I was away! She was very accommodating and flexible. She followed my dogs schedule and routine with no problems! She also sent me the cutest pup updates! So many good pictures and videos of my dog enjoying his time at her home! My dog was very happy and excited to go back everyday! So happy we found a great attentive loving family to send my pup to while I’m away! I highly recommend Noemi and her family!”
“We had a wonderful experience using Ingrid’s doggy day care services for the first time. We started with a meet and greet and Ingrid is helping Shadow ease into the new space and other dog intros in a digestible fashion. She is quick to respond, has great communication, very professional and experienced, with attentiveness towards each dog’s unique needs. It’s a relief to know my pup is in safe, caring hands getting the love, attention, play and exercise he needs. We just moved to the area and are looking forward to booking with Ingrid regularly during my work days. Thank you, Ingrid!”

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, I provide more than just pet sitting — I offer dependable, loving companionship tailored to each pet’s needs and one thing I can say I specialize in is accustoming to different routines based on your pet’s schedule and preferences, from long walks to playtime to quiet cuddle sessions! I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, love, and respect. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. I work at a school which means my schedule could be flexible at times and I do have weekends off which gives me more than enough play time for your furry friends on the weekends! I have a large fenced backyard which gives the dogs a chance to run around and play freely. I also have a partner who is a Firefighter and a huge dog lover and has more of a flexible schedule on most days so on the weekdays when I am at work and he is not working they will still be with someone offering lots of love and attention.

About: I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember. For the past 4 years I've helped my stepmom with her pet-sitting business, caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I've also watched, walked, and cared for pets for friends, family members, and neighbors. Being around animals never feels like work to me. I love getting outside for walks, playing with energetic dogs, and giving extra attention to dogs that might be missing their owners. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I do my best to make every dog feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I love spending time with animals. Between working at home and my other responsibilities, I make sure I have plenty of time set aside to give pets the attention they deserve. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, I'm happy to work with your pet's normal routine and make sure they stay comfortable and cared for. I know every pet is different, so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. I follow owners' instructions carefully and make sure pets always have fresh water, exercise, attention, and a safe environment. I'll also keep you updated while you're away with photos and messages because I know how much that means to their families.
“Seems like my boys adjusted well to a new environment and humans. My youngest fur baby can be very anxious at times and I have a very senior fur baby that needed extra TLC. I was glad to have someone that understand the specific needs of my babies. I am excited for their next visit!!!”
“Liza was wonderful. We need a last minute booking for a holiday and she accommodated us very easily. Our Goldendoodle, Biscuit, was very well cared for. He doesn’t always do well away from us and can have some separation anxiety. He was at ease and enjoyed himself. We will definitely rebook with her.”
“Cheyanne is an above and beyond dog sitter. I needed her help last minute due to an unideal housing situation for my dog with behavior problems. She accommodated my request, listened to my concerns and reassured me it would be okay. And it was! On his first day with Cheyanne, my dog had such a good time that he was pulling on his leash to get to her on his second day. The peace of mind Cheyanne has given me during an incredibly stressful time is priceless. Her combination of care, expertise and customer service is exceptional. I would recommend Cheyanne 10 times out of 10!”
About: Great to meet you! I have over 14 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from dogs to cats to snakes, bearded dragons, and even ants (yes I know)... and the list goes on! Ever since I can remember, I've always loved animals (dogs especially). To fulfill my wish to have a pet, I began volunteering at a local animal shelter and would frequently visit just to spend time with some of the animals and give them some love. There, I was able to learn how to better care for our furry friends, both elderly and young. Being able to play with them was just a bonus for me! While your dog is with me they will have access to a big fenced yard to play in and enjoy. If you'd prefer them to stay in their natural environment, that's fine too! Whatever makes them most comfortable, I'm happy to provide. Every pet's needs & wants are different, which I take the time to acknowledge when caring for them. My top priority is making sure your pets are safe, loved, and content while you're away. Feel free to message me if you have any questions and I'd be happy to help! Thanks for considering me! I'd love to start our mornings off with a nice hike or walk at my nearby beach. Working from home, your pets will get plenty of time and attention in my care! While boarding, they will have access to roam and play about in a fenced in yard under my supervision. Rest assured, I will take care of your babies as if they were my own. Making sure also to give you daily updates so you know your pup is well cared for!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs overnight and have attended them throughout the day. I feel comfortable administering meds as well. My family has always fostered dogs and cats so I have gained lots of confidence, great instincts and trust with my furry friends. Pet care has always been a passion of mine. I have a very flexible schedule as I go to school online and work remotely fulltime. If you book me, I am cognizant of my schedule and very punctual. I love to keep them moving whether it’s playing inside or outside. Snuggles and cuddles are always welcome. I prefer to follow the expectations based on the owners preference.

“Katharine did an excellent job walking my very shy dog Violet for an hour. She came over and spent time with Violet beforehand, so that Violet would not be scared of her. Katharine arrived on schedule and followed all of my instructions perfectly. I have already scheduled more walks soon and am so pleased to have found her.”
“Jae was able to walk my dog on short notice. Communication with her was very easy, she’s friendly and responsive. But most important she took my pup on a long walk and they had a great time!!”

Dogs who are comfortable around cats are welcome to enjoy the common areas of my home. For cats, I also have a separate room available so they can have their own quiet, comfortable space if they prefer to be away from other animals.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I bring to every animal I work with.

I’ve also been a lifelong pet parent, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust caring for your pets. I tailor my care to each pet’s age, temperament, routine, and health needs, whether that means extra patience with a senior pet, medication assistance, reinforcing basic training, or simply giving them the love and companionship they’re used to at home. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, communication, and reliability, and I care for every pet as I would my own. My goal is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved—and for their people to have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5, did an internship at a doggy daycare, and am always the go-to when friends and family need a pet sitter. I work part time with no long hours, so I’ll be able to hang out with pups nearly all day and feed them/take them outside at appropriate times. I have three dogs that are allowed free roam around the house but are sometimes kept in a big room downstairs with lots of windows and a sliding glass door. They love other dogs — my family and I will often take them to the dog park where they have lots of friends.
About: Hi, I’m Leah! I know how hard it is to trust someone with your pet, because I’m the same way with mine. That’s why I treat every dog or cat I care for like they’re my own.

Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet & greet 😊 I work fully remotely, so I am very flexible as far as walks, visits, or overnights go. Pet sitting is a passion of mine that I truly love and make time for outside of my regular 9-5.

About: Caring for animals has been a constant part of my life. I grew up in a home that always had two dogs at a time, and before moving out, my family had raised six wonderful dogs together. From energetic pups to older companions, I’ve experienced the full range of what it means to care for dogs through different stages of life. I currently share my home with two special-needs cats, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. Managing medications, monitoring behavior changes, and creating a calm, safe environment are all things I take seriously. My primary goal when caring for your pet is simple: I want them to feel happy, secure, and relaxed while you’re away. I also know how important peace of mind is for owners. I’m communicative, reliable, and happy to provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and cared for. I treat every animal with gentleness, respect, and the kind of attention I would want for my own pets. I work remotely in IT for a nonprofit organization, which gives me a very flexible weekday schedule. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy having some furry company during the week. Whether that means a midday walk to break up my workday or a fuzzy companion nearby while I’m at my desk. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m happy to structure my schedule around walks, feeding times, medication needs, or check-ins. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches, and you can expect consistent updates while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your routines and instructions carefully. I follow feeding schedules, medication needs, walking routines, and house rules closely so your pet’s world feels as consistent and familiar as possible while you’re away. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident everything is going smoothly. If your pet stays in my home, their comfort and safety are my top priorities. They will have their own dedicated space in my finished basement office that is clean, hazard-free, and separate from my cats. This allows visiting pets to relax without feeling overwhelmed, and ensures everyone stays safe and stress-free. The space includes a comfortable couch just for them, plenty of room to stretch out, and a calm environment away from household noise. I’m home during the day, so they’ll receive regular supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention, balanced with quiet time to rest.
About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember! Whenever friends and family need a pet sitter, I’m the first one they call! I come from a big family that includes multiple pets whether it’s 2 dogs or 2 cats I love both! It’s always my sincere goal to make sure your pets are well taken care of! I’ve pet sat for a family that to this day I still meet and hang out with their dogs! I love that bond! As always my main concern is your pets and make sure they are treated with respect and love because to me are pets are our family. I’m currently working part time at stop and shop, so I’m available currently on Monday’s and Tuesdays only.. I can do weekends but could only do so by 3:00 My work schedule is not a set schedule so if I’m not working that day, I will make sure to put that out there! And spend more play time with your pets! I have a big enough yard for my dog Benny and he loves to go outside and get treats! And a porch where we can relax and just hang out With him! I make sure every dog I take care of is on a leash but I can take it off depending on owners preference..my main priority is the safety of the pets in my care to make sure they don’t run away and are put in dangerous situations. I would also prefer to be at the owners house for now.

“Saying I am satisfied and overly happy with Gordie's stay at Allyson's house can never be enough to show how much I truly loved Gordie's boarding with Allyson. I never felt Gordie was left alone or disengaged. She sent multiple pictures to prove this. She treated him like one of the family and I am sure he actually FELT like he was one of the family! I was afraid he wouldn't want to come back home. haha. I don't have plans for a while...but when I do make some, I hope (and Gordie hopes too) that we can have Allyson watch him again, if she'll have us!”
“Nadine and her family were wonderful in taking care of our dog, Stella, while we were away. They were very attentive to Stella’s needs and personality and kept to her regular routine. Nadine kept us updated of Stella throughout her stay which is important when apart from your pets. We will definitely be using Nadine and Daniel again as dog sitters and highly recommend them to anyone considering a sitter for their pets.”
“Stefanie was absolutely amazing with my dog! This was my first time using Rover and I was pretty anxious, but she was a fantastic communicator throughout my dog's stay. We got so many adorable pictures and video updates. Her cats are super dog-friendly, and my dog got along great with them. Stefanie is very knowledgable and understands the nuances of pet care. My dog had a wonderful experience, and usually my dog is pretty anxious in new situations! She got plenty of affection, attention, and exercise. I would definitely book Stefanie again!”
“There's nobody better than Bruce for our little Sweet Pea. What a fun and loving environment. I have zero concern when leaving her with Bruce, knowing she'll be safe and happy.”
“Elizabeth is the most caring and responsible dog sitter. She gives updates with photos and always responds quickly. I was lucky to have such peace of mind on my trip.”
“Jayme was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly flexible with our schedule and always responded quickly to our messages. We felt so at ease knowing Finnegan was in such good hands. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and that he had a great time with her dogs. We highly recommend Jayme to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”
“I recently had Jieun look after my dog and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to ensure Skippy was well cared for and comfortable. Skippy can be reserved with new people, but he quickly warmed up to Jieun. Communication was another standout aspect of the stay. I received regular updates and great photos of Skippy having a good time, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that Jieun genuinely cared about Skippy’s well-being. The level of attention and care Skippy received was outstanding. I highly recommend Jieun if you need someone to care for your pet. Skippy and I are both incredibly grateful for the exceptional stay!”
“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“Catie and her husband were able to take care of my dog when travel plans changed last minute. I was very nervous with a new sitter but they took great care of Barkley. They sent videos and pictures thru out his stay and were very responsive when I reached out to check on how he was doing. I would recommend them and use again!”
“Bianca is very responsible and does an amazing job at caring for my dog. I have left my dog with her multiple time in the past and every time she goes above and beyond. Thank you Bianca!”
“Kara was amazing!! Going through a lot and I needed someone to take care of my two cats. She took them last minute and was so caring from the get go! One of my cats is very shy and he felt at home right away! I ended up extending the time because of my current situation. Will use her again!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Christopher was kind enough to take my pup on fairly short notice, which I so appreciate. He was friendly, a good communicator, and sent me updates/photos of my dog every day. I can tell Molly enjoyed her stay and I plan to bring her again on my next trip.”
“Daisy lived her overnight stay with Saori. She came home happy and super relaxed. I loved getting photo updates throughout her stay. I knew Daisy was in good hands and it helped make my trip so much more enjoyable knowing she was safe and well cared for. I’ll be booking again soon.”
“I just moved to CT from AL for work and when I heard there was a snow storm and knew I had to stay at the hospital, I knew I would be in a pickle with my pup. Mariana opened her home to my sweet baby and gave her such a great experience. All the photos throughout her stay were wonderful. I 10/10 recommend Mariana to anyone considering boarding their fur baby.”
“Davon was amazing. I outreached very impromptu and he was available for a meet and greet with Arya. ( which went well. We reviewed the basics of her care and he made sure to get a full understanding of what is needed to make Aryas stay as comfortable as possible) drop off was nice. He has spacious living accommodations. What stood out is his willingness to work with Arya being that she is a Bully. There are a many false conceptions about this breed. With his family background working with bully’s and pitbull, and his love for animals in general, I had no concerns that Arya was in good care. During her overnight visit, he provided checks up and sent pictures for reassurance. He also introduced Arya to family and friends ( which I love ) being that she is not around other dogs or people, helping her socialize. Picking Arya up was easy. All items returned and she was happy ! I previously boarded her , and when picking her up she was distant, had scratches and limped !!! All in all, 5 stars for Devon. I recommend and will use him again. 🐾💕”
“Brianna was fantastic. Our little Milo had a wonderful time! Brianna was very caring and attentive. She went out of her way to work with us in picking up Milo and sending periodic updates. We loved working with her!”
“My pup had the best time! When I arrived at Mari’s home, she showed me to the outdoor play yard. I received quite a few pics of my pup full on sprinting and having the best time meeting other pups in the neighborhood. Mari’s communication was excellent. I received pics every few hours and my very high energy pup arrived home after her stay and immediately passed out. Not an easy feat for a high energy doodle! We will most definitely be back!”
“Valeria was an incredible host for Ziggy! She was super communicative and took great care of him - I’ve already got my next booking scheduled. The ONLY downside is I think he likes her more than me now.”
