“Excellent boarding for our giant dogs! Just what we needed. No stress, no worry, great communication. We will definitely be using time and again. Thanks for an effortless service!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Lena provides for my dog. From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes her responsibilities seriously. I received regular updates, including photos and messages, which gives me peace of mind knowing my Lucy is in great hands. If you're looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate, I highly recommend Lena.”
“Shawna has been keeping Bella for over a year now. She is great with Bella, and Bella loves going to visit Shawna. I get daily updates and I always pick up a happy, healthy dog. She even sets up her couch so that Bella can get up there and sit with them. On her last visit, Bella had a medical event. She began coughing and hacking up foamy spit up. Shawna immediately contacted me and we originally decided just to monitor her. But when it continued everytime Bella drank water, Shawna made the decision to take her to the emergency vet. She kept me informed of everything they were doing and how Bella was being treated. She did exactly what I would have done and I'm thankful for having a sitter that I can completely trust to look after Bella. I highly recommend Shawna!!”
“Ms. Pat was just exactly who we needed to keep our Gigi. She sent us adorable pictures. We would try to get her again, for a sitter if we need one. My thanks to her for all she did.”
“We were on vacation with our dogs and needed an overnight sitter. Erin was great. She made us feel like we were leaving them in a very safe place where they would get the attention that they needed and deserved. It was fun to get pictures from Erin to show that the girls were comfortable and safe.I would recommend Erin 1000%.”
“Just wanted to get on here and say I highly recommend Reyna and her husband, our story is a bit different, you see we have, my husband and I , a cane corso mix with pit male dog Moses. . He’s my baby and my what our kids call my empty nester dog lol. He follows me everywhere and he’s the biggest cuddle bug, he sleeps at my feet you get the point…he’s my baby. So when we decided to take our adult kids and grandkids to Tybee Island for the week, we started looking at where to board him since he’s never been on a trip that far away and the house we had rented had a policy on bully, big dog breeds. We had boarded him before, with a different company, 2 times before. The second time though when we picked him up he was acting very skittish, he was cowed down, his nails were jagged and the lady at the desk said he had had diarrhea, which they never told me when I called for a update. Needless to say I was upset and so when looking for a boarder this time we were very cautious, and concerned. I read all the reviews on Reyna on Rover and I told my husband I like this one. We met with Reyna and her husband and Moses done so good, he ran the yard, played fetch , met their other dog and seemed so content. They went over how they hade separate sections for the dogs to play in, the kennels, we felt so good bout them. Dec 26 we ended up running late to drop off Moses before our trip so all the other dogs that they were boarding was outside, but Moses got anxious bout all the barking, Reyna and her husband took Moses into the kennel and assured us that they would bring him out, after getting all the other dogs back in, to acclimate him. Bring out several dogs at a time. They said they would update us. So after talking to them a bit and feeling better about leaving him, we drove back to Blue Ridge. Reyna ended up calling me a couple hours later and asked how to get Moses back in the house, that he was nervous, and anxious and he wouldn’t come to her. She had tried for over 30 minutes before she called me. I told her some stuff to try, when I called back she said it wasn’t working that he was just very scared acting. She also had I think it was her sister that’s a trainer, trying to get him to come to them, they sit in the ground with him, she told me that she knew someone that could come by our house to check on him but I didn’t wanna leave him at our house that long. So I called our vacation rental company explained what was going on, thankfully they made an exception with a bigger pet deposit and I told Reyna just to leave him alone and we were on our way to get him. When we pulled up, he came running up to us, Reyna said he was a different dog when we got there, he sit while they petted him, and put his leash on, the kids were petting him. She and her sister kept apologizing and saying they tried everything to get him to come to them but he just kept running away and running around. I am super grateful that she called me instead of just putting him in the kennel and leaving him there. She was genuinely worried bout him instead of just making money off of him and for that we do recommend her and her husband for boarding. Her husband called to check up on us and Moses the next day, and he apologized that Moses wasn’t able to stay and how they tried so hard to get him acclimated. I said it was all good, that Im glad they called me. That meant so much to us that they cared so much. He’s my baby and I wouldn’t want him to be miserable. So Moses got to go on a beach vacation, he did amazing on the ride down and back and he made new friends wherever we went while we were there.”
“When my usual Rover sitter was unavailable, I found Ashley to watch our Charlie for a busy Friday evening-Sat afternoon. She was highly responsive when I first reached out, and we briefly talked on the phone and it was clear she was thoughtful and would be attentive to our 1.5 year old Cavalier. She made herself available to the drop-off and pick-up times that were most convenient for me, and sent reassuring pictures throughout the stay. I wouldn't hesitate at all to have our pup stay with Ashley again in the future. Great experience.”
“Monika took excellent care of our fur baby and was very communicative the entire time. She made us feel comfortable and jackson came home tired and happy. Will definitely be booking again!!”
“Lori was incredible. Booked her last minute and she took such good care of our Frenchie. We got so many updates and we could tell he was well loved when we picked him up. Very grateful for wonderful dog sitters like Lori!”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. During college, I worked as a veterinary assistant, where I gained valuable knowledge about animal health, behavior, and safety. In addition to my professional experience, I have rescued and fostered numerous dogs over the years, helping them transition into loving forever homes. As a proud dog parent to five dogs of my own, I understand that pets are family and deserve the same love, attention, and care we would give our own. I am responsible, compassionate, patient, and attentive to each pet's individual needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and reassuring presence, I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience while you're away. I look forward to treating your furry family member like one of my own! Experience with: •Senior care •Puppy care •Pets with disabilities •Pet medication administration This season of life has taught me to slow down and focus on what matters most. As I recover from cancer and gradually return to work, pet sitting has become something that brings me joy, purpose, and healing. I treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in compassionate, responsible, and attentive hands. I provide attentive, loving care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication needs, and plenty of affection. In my home, pets are treated like family and given a safe, comfortable environment. When caring for pets in their own home, I help maintain their routine and surroundings to reduce stress and keep them happy while their owners are away. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for.
“Angie was great with Chewy. I could tell that he trusted her and was very comfortable with her. She was great about sending us updates and pictures each day. We are very thankful for her time and commitment to him.”
“I ended up reaching out to Maggie for a day of boarding. We were traveling in her area, and I asked if she’d take care of my pup for a few hours while we went out for my birthday dinner. Sadly, we had a last minute emergency and didn’t end up using her services. That being said, she was very kind, communicative, and flexible. I appreciated the interaction immensely, and I would reach out again in a heartbeat if we lived in the area!”
“This is the second or third time we have used Yawadee, she was wonderful. She kept us up dated on our dogs with text and pictures. We had her keep our 6 month old Great Dane who got very nervous and was sick. Yawadee went above and beyond to bath and clean our dogs bedding. We will definitely use her again.”
“Lacole took such good care of my girl. She sent lots of pictures and gave me lots of updates, and I was never concerned about Girls’s well-being, and if she was being taken care of, because I knew that she was. So thankful to have found Lacole and family. I definitely will be asking her to watch Girl again. I highly recommend as you will not be disappointed 😁”
“Angela took great care of our pups during their stay! She sent videos and pics throughout the day and we felt very confident leaving them with her. They are big dogs but she handled them well. She also came out prior to their stay to meet them so that they would recognize her when we dropped them off. Highly recommend!”

“We absolutely love Lauren! She took such great care of Finn over the weekend and kept in touch, which we loved! It’s nice to have someone care about our dog as much as we do! Thanks again Lauren for everything!”

“Katrina exceeded all of our expectations in every way! Professional, friendly, attentive and wonderful to work with! We look forward to having Katrina check on KiKi on our next Vacay. We are so relieved to have found someone so reliable in our area! Thank you so much Katrina!”
“Lacole is absolutely wonderful and we could not recommend her enough! She truly went above and beyond watching our cats. She is flexible and is quick to fix any issues that could possibly arise. We will always give her 5/5 stars!”
“Aaron was excellent. We have 2 cats, one old who is friendly, and the other ex feral who is usually terrified of strangers. There I am visiting family, and I get a video of my "feral" bumping around getting her head & butt scratched! Quite a testament to the kind of person Aaron is. The litterbox was spotless. The cat food dishes were washed and neatly stacked. We will not hesitate to use him again.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Ana! Monroe is not just my dog; she’s family. She’s an older girl who needs a little extra care, and I’m very particular about who I trust with her, especially when I’m away and can’t bring her along with us like I normally do. I took a chance on Ana initially, not knowing her, but the moment we met, I had a really good feeling. She was kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring, and Monroe took to her right away. Seeing the natural connection between them immediately put me at ease. Ana has been wonderful ever since. She keeps me updated, sends photos, and makes sure Monroe is comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I also have complete peace of mind knowing that my home is in good hands while I’m away. It means so much to be able to travel and know that my girl is being cared for by someone I genuinely trust. Ana has earned that trust, and I’m so grateful we found her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with kindness and care. ❤️”
“So thankful that Amanda was able to keep a check on our pooch while we explored the Blue Ridge area! Don't hesitate to book with her if you need some pet love for your furry friend. :)”
About: I’ve had every type of pet under the sun from dogs to cats to reptiles and love them all the same.

I treat animals like kids they deserve the world. Willing to help anytime.

About: I have owned a cat(s) since I was 4 years old and adore them. I was always the girl at the vet office that could handle the big, scary ones. I enjoy taking my cat for a walk, training him, and playing with him so he gets his exercise. I've worked professionally in cat care before and love how independent and lovable they can be when their owners are away, I just match their energy.
About: I've always loved taking care of animals and have been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. I truly enjoy making sure pets are happy, healthy, and well loved whether that means feeding, walking, or just spending quality time with them. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, and small animals, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I spend a lot of time at the dog park with my own dogs, especially my high energy pup who needs plenty of exercise and playtime. I understand how important it is for active dogs to burn off energy in a fun and safe environment, and I bring that same care and attention to every pet I look after. I'm a school photographer, which means I work seasonally and have a pretty flexible schedule for most of the year. This allows me to be available for pet sitting, especially during off-peak months. I’m reliable, love animals, and happy to help care for your pets when you need it! When pet sitting, I prioritize safety by carefully following any instructions you provide, keeping pets in secure environments, and making sure they’re never left unattended in risky situations. I build trust through consistent routines, gentle care, and regular updates to pet parents. I also create a calm, familiar environment by maintaining pets’ daily schedules, offering plenty of affection, and ensuring they feel at home even when you’re away.
About: I have been watching dogs sense I was able to drive. I’ve grown up my entire life with dogs and cats. I have a pup named Prince he’s a good boy. I love to meet new pup friends and take care of them as if they were mine. I am a full time student but I am online so I can walk or take out your pets whenever it’s needed, but i do work a part time job. If my assistants is needed just text me and we can set something up! I first want to meet the dogs and go over the do’s and don’ts with the owner. I value the comfort and trust from the pet and owner over everything.

“Ashley was simply great! Our pups loved her and her home! We were very impressed by her, the environment and how well the pups took to her. She was very warm towards our dogs and just gave them free reign of her home as if the dogs had been going there forever... we will definitely take use her again!”
“Esmeralda offered the perfect day care experience for our little morkie, Molly. We were visiting in the Blue Ridge area and had activities planned for two days that would not allow us to bring our pet along. Esmeralda's home was a peaceful retreat in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Our little morkie gets overwhelmed and stressed at boarding facilities. But she was happy and playful when I picked her up each day. Esmeralda sent updates and photos both days and was genuinely happy to see Molly each morning. We will definitely use Esmeralda again when we travel to the Blue Ridge area. We highly recommend her!”
About: Hi, I’m Maggie! I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. I have lived on a farm surrounded by dogs, horses, and cats, which gave me years of hands on experience caring for animals of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. After losing my beloved German Shepherd, I began fostering others through rescues. A journey that’s been both healing and incredibly rewarding. It’s deepened my understanding of different temperaments, training needs, and the importance of patience, structure, and gentle consistency. Whether I’m boarding, house sitting, or stopping in for a visit, I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where every pet feels safe and cared for like family. I treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I am currently working almost full time. I can spend evenings with your dog. I am usually gone around 6-8 hours a day at most. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I would only take outside on leash. I have a cat. I can keep the cat separated if needed.

“Max enjoyed his time with Lena. She was very attentive to him and provided him with great care during his visit. This was his first time away from his family, so her kindness was very important. Max made a new friend with Lena's Yorkie, Freddie. Lena sent us a very nice photo of the two new friends. We will definitely contact Lena for future visits to that area. Thank you very much, Lena!”
“Cooper loves daycare with Reyna and her family! Their large fenced-in yard gives him plenty of space to run and play with their sweet puppy, Maple. He loved being part of their family for the day!

“Superior experience! ..and communication. Plenty of area to explore and run, much better than a dog park, and typical kennel daycare/boarding. Rhett was pooped out! Highly recommended.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have always had pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I’m comfortable with dogs of any size. I have 2 dogs of my own. I’m available for visits and walks in the evenings in May. I’ll have week day and weekend availability in June and July. After July, I’ll be available mostly on weekends.

About: Your dog will enjoy their very own private indoor kennel, complete with a cozy bed and a TV for entertainment! We even have a special door leading to their fenced-in outdoor area, so they can roam and play whenever they want. Plus, to keep you in the loop, we send updates throughout the day so you can relax, knowing your furry friend is having a great time! Your pet will have the freedom to come and go as they please through their own doggy door, which leads to a private front porch enclosed by a secure six-foot fence. This safe outdoor space allows your dog to explore and enjoy the fresh air while keeping them protected. The covered porch provides an ideal spot for your furry friend to relax and soak up the sun, making it a perfect retreat for cozy naps throughout the day. Your dog will love having their own special area to lounge and bask in the warmth! Pet owners are responsible for providing their pets with the appropriate food and any necessary medications to ensure their health and well-being. Our kennels prioritize safety above all else, which is why each dog is housed in a secure space surrounded by a privacy fence. This separation prevents any mingling between dogs, creating a calm environment that protects their individual comfort and safety, as well as the safety of our caring family. We take every precaution to create a secure and nurturing environment for all dogs in our care.
“Her flexibility was so very important on this trip and she went with the flow of our revisions amazingly well. She's terrific and very loving to our dog Betsy who is deaf and 13 years old. Betsy was held and cuddled the entire stay. It's obvious that she's a committed and caring dog lover. What a treasure in these hills! Highly recommend her services to any and everyone considering her to care for your dog! You won't find better!”

“I really should just pay you for the pictures you take instead of the dog walking! 🤣 they’re hilarious & crack me up! Thank you for taking such great care of my fur baby. It brings me so much relief to know she’s having fun and in good hands, while I’m at work.”
About: Hi! I’m Wynema with Harvest & Haven Farm. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn’t just a job—it’s something I genuinely love. Our farm is home to chickens, ducks, goats, donkeys, dogs, and more, so your pet will be joining a family that’s used to providing lots of love, attention, and care. When your pet stays with us, they’ll have plenty of room to explore, play, and relax in a peaceful farm setting. I know every animal has a different personality, so I take the time to get to know each one and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet loves to run, cuddle, play, or simply nap in the sunshine, my goal is for them to feel like they’re on their own little vacation. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll care for them the same way I care for my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾🌿 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already live and work on our farm. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s what I do every day. Since I’m on the property throughout the day, pets receive frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and lots of attention. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s extra cuddle time, medication, or a slower pace for senior pets. Because I spend so much of my day outdoors and around animals, your pet will be part of a calm, active environment where they’re treated like one of the family—not just another booking. 🐾🌿 Our entire property is fenced in. Your furrbaby will have 6 acres to explore and play. We also have a separate fenced paddock to separate animals, if need be.

“Katirna was a lifesaver when we needed a walker while visiting Blue Ridge for a wedding. She was so sweet and patient with our senior dog to the point where she took him out twice just to accommodate his slow walking. We highly recommend her to anyone living or visiting this area!”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. During college, I worked as a veterinary assistant, where I gained valuable knowledge about animal health, behavior, and safety. In addition to my professional experience, I have rescued and fostered numerous dogs over the years, helping them transition into loving forever homes. As a proud dog parent to five dogs of my own, I understand that pets are family and deserve the same love, attention, and care we would give our own. I am responsible, compassionate, patient, and attentive to each pet's individual needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and reassuring presence, I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience while you're away. I look forward to treating your furry family member like one of my own! Experience with: •Senior care •Puppy care •Pets with disabilities •Pet medication administration This season of life has taught me to slow down and focus on what matters most. As I recover from cancer and gradually return to work, pet sitting has become something that brings me joy, purpose, and healing. I treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in compassionate, responsible, and attentive hands. I provide attentive, loving care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication needs, and plenty of affection. In my home, pets are treated like family and given a safe, comfortable environment. When caring for pets in their own home, I help maintain their routine and surroundings to reduce stress and keep them happy while their owners are away. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for.

About: I've always loved taking care of animals and have been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. I truly enjoy making sure pets are happy, healthy, and well loved whether that means feeding, walking, or just spending quality time with them. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, and small animals, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I spend a lot of time at the dog park with my own dogs, especially my high energy pup who needs plenty of exercise and playtime. I understand how important it is for active dogs to burn off energy in a fun and safe environment, and I bring that same care and attention to every pet I look after. I'm a school photographer, which means I work seasonally and have a pretty flexible schedule for most of the year. This allows me to be available for pet sitting, especially during off-peak months. I’m reliable, love animals, and happy to help care for your pets when you need it! When pet sitting, I prioritize safety by carefully following any instructions you provide, keeping pets in secure environments, and making sure they’re never left unattended in risky situations. I build trust through consistent routines, gentle care, and regular updates to pet parents. I also create a calm, familiar environment by maintaining pets’ daily schedules, offering plenty of affection, and ensuring they feel at home even when you’re away.

“Excellent boarding for our giant dogs! Just what we needed. No stress, no worry, great communication. We will definitely be using time and again. Thanks for an effortless service!”
“Ms. Pat was just exactly who we needed to keep our Gigi. She sent us adorable pictures. We would try to get her again, for a sitter if we need one. My thanks to her for all she did.”
“Just wanted to get on here and say I highly recommend Reyna and her husband, our story is a bit different, you see we have, my husband and I , a cane corso mix with pit male dog Moses. . He’s my baby and my what our kids call my empty nester dog lol. He follows me everywhere and he’s the biggest cuddle bug, he sleeps at my feet you get the point…he’s my baby. So when we decided to take our adult kids and grandkids to Tybee Island for the week, we started looking at where to board him since he’s never been on a trip that far away and the house we had rented had a policy on bully, big dog breeds. We had boarded him before, with a different company, 2 times before. The second time though when we picked him up he was acting very skittish, he was cowed down, his nails were jagged and the lady at the desk said he had had diarrhea, which they never told me when I called for a update. Needless to say I was upset and so when looking for a boarder this time we were very cautious, and concerned. I read all the reviews on Reyna on Rover and I told my husband I like this one. We met with Reyna and her husband and Moses done so good, he ran the yard, played fetch , met their other dog and seemed so content. They went over how they hade separate sections for the dogs to play in, the kennels, we felt so good bout them. Dec 26 we ended up running late to drop off Moses before our trip so all the other dogs that they were boarding was outside, but Moses got anxious bout all the barking, Reyna and her husband took Moses into the kennel and assured us that they would bring him out, after getting all the other dogs back in, to acclimate him. Bring out several dogs at a time. They said they would update us. So after talking to them a bit and feeling better about leaving him, we drove back to Blue Ridge. Reyna ended up calling me a couple hours later and asked how to get Moses back in the house, that he was nervous, and anxious and he wouldn’t come to her. She had tried for over 30 minutes before she called me. I told her some stuff to try, when I called back she said it wasn’t working that he was just very scared acting. She also had I think it was her sister that’s a trainer, trying to get him to come to them, they sit in the ground with him, she told me that she knew someone that could come by our house to check on him but I didn’t wanna leave him at our house that long. So I called our vacation rental company explained what was going on, thankfully they made an exception with a bigger pet deposit and I told Reyna just to leave him alone and we were on our way to get him. When we pulled up, he came running up to us, Reyna said he was a different dog when we got there, he sit while they petted him, and put his leash on, the kids were petting him. She and her sister kept apologizing and saying they tried everything to get him to come to them but he just kept running away and running around. I am super grateful that she called me instead of just putting him in the kennel and leaving him there. She was genuinely worried bout him instead of just making money off of him and for that we do recommend her and her husband for boarding. Her husband called to check up on us and Moses the next day, and he apologized that Moses wasn’t able to stay and how they tried so hard to get him acclimated. I said it was all good, that Im glad they called me. That meant so much to us that they cared so much. He’s my baby and I wouldn’t want him to be miserable. So Moses got to go on a beach vacation, he did amazing on the ride down and back and he made new friends wherever we went while we were there.”
“When my usual Rover sitter was unavailable, I found Ashley to watch our Charlie for a busy Friday evening-Sat afternoon. She was highly responsive when I first reached out, and we briefly talked on the phone and it was clear she was thoughtful and would be attentive to our 1.5 year old Cavalier. She made herself available to the drop-off and pick-up times that were most convenient for me, and sent reassuring pictures throughout the stay. I wouldn't hesitate at all to have our pup stay with Ashley again in the future. Great experience.”
“Monika took excellent care of our fur baby and was very communicative the entire time. She made us feel comfortable and jackson came home tired and happy. Will definitely be booking again!!”
“Angie was great with Chewy. I could tell that he trusted her and was very comfortable with her. She was great about sending us updates and pictures each day. We are very thankful for her time and commitment to him.”
“I ended up reaching out to Maggie for a day of boarding. We were traveling in her area, and I asked if she’d take care of my pup for a few hours while we went out for my birthday dinner. Sadly, we had a last minute emergency and didn’t end up using her services. That being said, she was very kind, communicative, and flexible. I appreciated the interaction immensely, and I would reach out again in a heartbeat if we lived in the area!”
“This is the second or third time we have used Yawadee, she was wonderful. She kept us up dated on our dogs with text and pictures. We had her keep our 6 month old Great Dane who got very nervous and was sick. Yawadee went above and beyond to bath and clean our dogs bedding. We will definitely use her again.”
“Lacole took such good care of my girl. She sent lots of pictures and gave me lots of updates, and I was never concerned about Girls’s well-being, and if she was being taken care of, because I knew that she was. So thankful to have found Lacole and family. I definitely will be asking her to watch Girl again. I highly recommend as you will not be disappointed 😁”
“Angela took great care of our pups during their stay! She sent videos and pics throughout the day and we felt very confident leaving them with her. They are big dogs but she handled them well. She also came out prior to their stay to meet them so that they would recognize her when we dropped them off. Highly recommend!”

“Candie was quick to respond to a very last minute booking. She and her family were so kind and welcomed our dog to her family for a lengthy period of time. Jax had a blast playing and swimming. We received pictures and an update every evening. We will definitely book again!”
“We absolutely love Lauren! She took such great care of Finn over the weekend and kept in touch, which we loved! It’s nice to have someone care about our dog as much as we do! Thanks again Lauren for everything!”
“Kaylee was wonderful! Our girls Piper and Gracie had a great time. We loved getting photo and video updates on the girls while we were away. We will definitely be back!”
“Ashley took such great care of our Sally girl! She sent us updates of Sally along with pictures and videos! We didn’t worry one bit while we were away on vacation!! Ashley and her husband are the sweetest people who deeply care for every animal that enters their home! Can’t wait to rebook with Ashley!”
“Thank you for letting my dogs experience the farm life for a week. It was nice knowing that they would have the opportunity to meet some new friends & hangout a bit in a fenced pasture. Along with interacting with some farm animals, my dogs had a chance as well to go swimming in a pond in another pasture with the host dogs to cool off.”
“My dogs were all smiles while hanging out with Tiffany and her sweet family! They were clearly well taken care of and loved on throughout their stay - and were probably sad to leave their new friends! Everything was great from the meet and greet through the stay. Tiffany is a great communicator and very friendly. We hope to book again on our next trip! 👍👍”
“Emily was the absolute best! She has a perfect environment for dogs and cats to have a fun and relaxing stay. My cat and dog both loved staying with her and I will definitely board them with her again!”
“Alyssa was great with kopa and accommodating all of his needs. He is usually anxious so I was a bit worried but she was patient and loving and he opened up quickly! She kept me updated and sent pictures, would definitely use her again!”
“Jasmin and her family are caring, sweet people. It's silly to say but you can feel the love as you walk through the door. I just knew that my most prized possessions, my furbabies were going to be well taken care of. I received pictures and my dogs were very relaxed and became apart of their family while I was away. Jasmin can be trusted and I will definitely ask her to take care of my babies again in the future.”
