“Cristina took care of our Son (Don) for 2 days, she sent us pics where he looks very happy walking at the park, and inside her car, Thanks Cristina, we hope you can take care of our loved son next time!”

“Jackie was wonderful with my Shiloh. It’s not easy for me to be away from him but I felt ease and comfort leaving him in her care. She sent video and photos regularly and kept me up to date on how he was doing. He has separation anxiety and she was gentle and caring with him. Separately, I appreciate Jackie’s understanding when I had to adjust the time of my return. She was just great overall.”

“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!”

“Devin was an amazing dog sitter for my dog, Bandit! She was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure he felt comfortable and loved the entire time it gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. I would absolutely trust Devin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“Katie was an absolute pleasure to work with. She and her family clearly love dogs and provided exceptional care for Bella. She was flexible with the unique nature of our travel plans and timely with our communications. The photo and video updates gave us comfort in seeing that Bella was in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Katie again and highly recommend her as a Rover sitter. Five stars. Thank you Katie.”

“Auburn was absolutely fantastic in caring for our dog, Malo. She went above and beyond not only did she do an excellent job with all the tasks, but she also sent wonderful photos throughout, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. We could tell Malo was relaxed and happy in her care. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Highly recommend Auburn to anyone looking for dependable, caring, and attentive dog care.”

“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.”


“Very kind. Great commutator. I will definitely use her again. My dog really seemed to like her stay there. Love that this Rover individual takes my dog on walks and interacts with her!”

“My dog loved it with Megha! I received such great photos and videos of my Nefertiti. I know she was enjoying herself and being looked after her. It’s so hard to find someone that genuinely loves animals that you can trust with your dog but that’s definitely her! Thank you so much and would definitely book again!”

“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.”

“Emmanuel exceeded all of my expectations. He sent pictures and videos of the dogs together everyday and my dog Princess went into heat the day after we dropped her off and I was so thankful that he did not ask me to pick her back up and deny the job. He just had me buy some doggy diapers and drop them off to her. Princess, didn't even seem to mind the fact that he was in charge. In fact I would even say that she really loved her time there with Emmanuel and all of her new doggie friends. Not only will I request Emmanuel's services again but next time he will not only have my 4.4 pound Yorkie, but he will also have my boxer Chopper and my Lab Remmy. Thank you for everything.”

“Megan did an amazing job watching our dog! She sent us daily updates with photos and had great communication throughout the entire stay. Our dog loved it over there.”

“Bryce was very accommodating, kind, and responsive! He was open to meeting beforehand for my ease of mind prior to the stay and sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout. Would recommend and would book again!”

“I've tried a few sitters and none were bad but I've never seen our dog as happy with his tail constantly wagging as we did with Angie. She sent constant photo and video updates, communicated very well, and truly cared for our doggo.”

“We had the pleasure of having Jillian as our dog sitter for nearly two weeks, and we couldn't be happier with her service. She provided outstanding care for our beloved Max, who seemed to have the time of his life under her watch. Jillian kept us updated with photos and videos of Max all along. Jillian's dedication to Max's well-being was evident from the start. She was attentive to his needs, ensuring he was well-fed, exercised, and, most importantly, loved. Her daily updates were a comforting touch that kept us connected to Max while we were away. Her professionalism and genuine love for animals shine through in her work. We returned to a happy, healthy pup who had clearly formed a strong bond with Jillian. It's not just about watching over a pet; it's about creating a nurturing environment, and Jillian does this flawlessly. We highly recommend Jillian to any pet owner who wants peace of mind when they can't be with their furry family member. She's truly a gem, and Max is already looking forward to his next stay with her!”

“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!!”

“Ally was so great to work with and our dogs loved her. She was great at communicating and I knew the dogs were being well taken care of. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”


“I can't say enough about how great Jamie was with our 3 cats! I'm a bit of a picky pet parent and Jamie did a wonderful job of checking off every need of our furry friends. I highly recommend her!”

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.

“Ethan went above and beyond to care for our 2 dogs when a medical incident occurred. Their communication was consistent and frequent throughout our entire vacation. We would happily book with them again and feel like our dogs were safe and loved in their care!”

“Cheney was an excellent caretaker of my cat, and was very responsive to messages and directions. I came home to a happy pet and felt good that she had someone attentive looking after her.”


About: Ive taken care of cats for many a year. I have my very own playful kitty at home who loves all of the creative interactive puzzles. I have experience administrating medications and applying medications, and coming up with fun ways to trick them into pills.

“Abby was very responsive and communicative from the start. She is thorough and wanted to know all of the little things that will help her with our dog. She was recovering from surgery (5 weeks out) and Abby did everything she could to help her along so we could enjoy a couple of days without worrying about her. The pictures she sent from her check ins confirmed our dog loved her and was well cared for. Thank you!”
About: I tailor my approach to each furbabys individual needs. I ensure they are both comfortable and happy while you are away to make both the parent and furbabys separation less stressful. I have cared for many breeds of different ages and currently have 3 of our own. I am experienced in giving oral medications, light grooming such as brushing/bathing and managing anxious pups. I currently work full-time Tuesday-Friday. I am available for overnight stays and drop-ins depending on day/time-just reach out for availability. Feel free to shoot me a message and inquire. I follow all pet parents rules, feeding times, bed times. I encourage you to provide full instructions in advance to review together in order to provide the best possible care.

About: I have experience with all walks of life when it comes to animals. From fish to farm animals. I have two cats and two dogs and chickens and goats and pigs and ducks. Along with house birds. I am currently not working. I am a stay-at-home mom. So my schedule is pretty open. Especially to boarding I have the space for it. TimeWise I do work around my toddler schedule for dog walking and Cat sitting. I have a fenced in backyard. A very large house. I also have four kids that love animals. So an animal that loves kids would be preferred. But not completely out of the question if there is a child issue I can just keep my kids away from the animal. Pretty easy to fix.

About: I’m 26 years old and have dedicated my life to caring for cats of all breeds and sizes, from my own to stray cats. I spent over a year working with pets, gaining very valuable knowledge and have also been the proud parent of an incredible 6-year-old Tabby since he was just the size of my palm.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve spent my whole life caring for them. As the primary caregiver for my families pets, I’ve gained a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and behaviors. I have 10+ years of hands‑on cat care experience, including raising abandoned kittens that I bottle‑fed from just days old, caring for elderly cats, and everything in between.

About: I wanted to take a job that would allow me to be at home most of the time for my doggies. I think animals are Gods creatures that He created for us .... love unconditionally! I have had dogs & cats of all breeds growing up. Animals are such great therapeutic. They are beautiful and I would care for your animals just like they’re my own! I have learn animals are much more than companions they are a huge part of our loves. They are there to love on you. To comfort you ... they know when you’re down and they want you to be happy. I sometimes would rather spend time with animals rather than humans. Lol Animals KNOW when you’re a good person. I’ve learn to trust their instincts❤️🐶 I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to meet your needs for your furbabies Early mornings thru early evenings or in between are preferred :) I love pets! (Prob better than humans. Lol) I have 2 dogs of my own & have crates if needed. I can come to your house to take care of your babies if needed (not overnight tho) :)
“Jackie was wonderful with Toby! She gave him so much love and care, and he came home happy and well taken care of. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend her!”

About: I have been a vet technician for over 10 years now and currently in school to become a registered vet technician. I’m able to monitor your pet especially if having conditions such as diabetes and/or have chronic conditions. I love the furry babies and love what I do! I own a two Boston terriers and have a family of my own that is my world! I can guarantee you that your pet will be taken care of with ER experience so I would know the signs for sure if your baby needed medical help. Since I work at an animal hospital this is a win win situation! Only that I can use my knowledge and skills to help owners feel at ease when leaving their furry babies with me. My dogs are SPOILED especially my bostons. We go on daily walks, I do not crate them but when I have pets that I do sit, I would separate them safety wise. I’m able to monitor behaviors before introducing my dogs to other clients’ pets. I’m pursuing to stay home full time and focus on school. With staying home I will have more time and flexibility on my schedule to take care of your babies. I currently live in an apartment complex but can accommodate room. With the experience I have I’m able to tell if your pet has social anxiety or anxious away from home. I also have a crate if needed.
About: I grew up with lots of pets, a golden retriever, labs, a vizsla, and siamese cats. I have worked with a non-profit rehabbing retired throroughbreads and retraining them for lives off the track, which has given me confidence, patience, and adaptability in handling spirited animals. I am currently working freelance and control my own schedule, so I can customize the level of care required to your needs. I'm happy to care for them at your home or take them on adventures to parks, hikes etc. Depending on your pet's needs, I am available for walks, feeding, playtime, training, boarding, and any other activities they enjoy. My demeanor is calm and patient, able to babysit a senior animal with special needs or entertain the most energetic of birddogs. I have experience in animal training for film and TV and am happy to offer those skills to teach new behaviors if requested.
“Alyssa was a perfect fit for Kirby!! I could tell he had a lot of fun and enjoyed his day because he slept like a rock. When I brought Kirby back for his second day with Alyssa he ran right up to her and acted like he was home. Friendly neighbors, perfect secluded spot to feel safe, and loving people. Kirby and I are excited to use Alyssa’s service when we are back in her area.”

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.
“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.”

“Every time Molly stays with this wonderful family, my heart feels at peace. I know she’s loved, safe, and so well cared for. They treat her like one of their own, and that means the world to me. Thank you for always taking such amazing care of my girl! 💛🐾”

“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! Reyna sent me great pictures of him zooming around the yard and relaxing near the boys while they worked on school. He came home happy, tired, and ready for a nap! We’ll definitely be coming back!”


“Olena is just wonderful. Upon meeting her for the first time - we felt almost like family. Lovely home snd yard, put dogs were very happy there. I would highly recommend Olena. We will definitely use her again,”

About: I work from home and would love to host and care for your fur babies while you are at work or away on vacation. I have loved animals of all types my entire life. My husband and I formerly rescued and fostered multiple rat terriers and placed them in loving homes through an organization called New Rattitude. I currently have a volunteer position with the same organization as a microchip coordinator. While I was in high school and college I worked for two animal clinics in the Metro Atlanta area and volunteered with local animal shelters. My family pets over the past 22 years were 2 Rat Terriers and 2 Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mixes that all lived to be seniors. I have experience in caring for dogs of all ages. Since I am at home so much, your dogs will be not be lonely, they will be doted on and treated like royalty. I have a large fenced in yard for sniffing, exercise and exploration. I only take one client at a time. I do not have any pets of my own. Yours will have my undivided attention and care. I will update you with photos and status reports on a daily basis. Please understand that while we have experience with senior dogs and dogs with special needs, we are currently unable to book dogs that are experiencing incontinence (even with diapers) and night time pacing/spatial disorientation/sleeplessness that comes with senility. Since I work from home, I will keep your dog on any required schedule such as medications, supplements, specific feeding times, and potty breaks. Playtimes and naptimes will be intermittent throughout the day. I have comfy doggie beds throughout the house and under my office desk. My home is clean and safe. I have a secure, fenced in yard with many areas to explore and space to run around. All gates are padlocked. I also stay outside with the dogs that are in my care. I leave a full bowl of water out 24 -7. I allow dogs to sleep in my bed if that is what they are accustomed to, I can also crate them if that is preferred. Your dog(s) will be safe and happy as guests in my home. I have a Red Cross Certification in Pet First Aid in the rare occasion there would be a need. I am also sensitive to dogs with thunder and firework fears, we have a comfy furnished basement space that mutes the bad sounds and we hang out there until everything calms down.
“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!”

I am a student in college, and I work part time at an assisted living facility. Other than the days I’m at work, I’m basically free!

About: I've loved being around animals for as long as I can remember.

I also have my own dogs. I've had my small dog for about a year, and we recently welcomed a medium-sized dog to our family. I've also checked in on a neighbor's cats for a short time while they were away.

About: Ive taken care of animals since I was 11. Ive had animals that range from hamsters to horses and alpacas. I have experience medicating, bathing and general care. I have worked with horses in a professional capacity. I am currently between chapters in my life. I'll have plenty of time to pop in and help out! Cant wait to meet all the lovely darlings! Understanding animal behavior is a huge part of my care. Different species, individual animals, all have various needs and methods of communication. I do my best to follow all instructions from you, while also respecting each critter's individual communications in the moment.

About: I’ve always had dogs at home, up to three at once! Most all raised and trained from puppy stages. I had a disabled dog recently who lost usage of her back legs and was incompetent. She required lots of help and being carried around but was a sweetheart. Currently I have eight geckos as well as two snakes, a skink, two cats (mostly outdoor) and one dog. My dogs name is Luna, she’s almost two years old, deaf and mentally special but as friendly as can be! (Several rooms for separation of my dog if needed as well as my crate. So far she gets along well with others) My current weekly routine is as follows: Monday: Feed Cats and Dog x2, feed and mist geckos Tuesday: Feed cats and dog x2 Wednesday: Feed cats and dogs x2, feed and mist geckos, feed skink, feed hognose Thursday: Feed cats and dog x2 Friday: Feed cats and dog x2, feed and most geckos Saturday: Feed cats and dog x2, feed skink Sunday: Feed cats and dog x2 Feed and mist geckos Saturday I go out about every hour and a half for potty breaks. I do not have a fence but I have a large pasture as well as lots of leads. I’m willing to walk for hours with your pet on a leash! I have one friendly pup to keep yours company and I have a spare room. I have the ability to crate my dog and space for a crate for yours if provided. We go out after every food and water break, get lots of cuddles and extra play time!
About: I'm a sahm so I have flexible hours! I have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, including a senior dog. I have tons of experience with puppies, kittens and administration of medication. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible. I do go to the gym everyday so I would need to be able to do that. My son, he's 7would be with me during the week but if it was overnights for the weekend he would not. I do not care for pets in my own home it would need to be your home. I'm happy to house sit and take them on walks.

About: I have experience with all walks of life when it comes to animals. From fish to farm animals. I have two cats and two dogs and chickens and goats and pigs and ducks. Along with house birds. I am currently not working. I am a stay-at-home mom. So my schedule is pretty open. Especially to boarding I have the space for it. TimeWise I do work around my toddler schedule for dog walking and Cat sitting. I have a fenced in backyard. A very large house. I also have four kids that love animals. So an animal that loves kids would be preferred. But not completely out of the question if there is a child issue I can just keep my kids away from the animal. Pretty easy to fix.
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 loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve spent my whole life caring for them. Being the primary caregiver for my own family pets has given me a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and behaviors. Over the years I’ve raised and cared for dozens of animals, including abandoned kittens that I bottle‑fed from a few days old. These experiences taught me patience, problem‑solving, and how to stay calm and capable in all kinds of situations. I’ve also provided pet care for family friends, neighbors, and coworkers, giving me hands‑on experience with many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is always to make them feel safe, understood, and comfortable while you’re away. I currently work part‑time on weekends while attending college full‑time throughout the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I can easily adjust my routine to make sure your pets get the care, attention, and consistency they need. I’m reliable, communicative, and always make pet care a priority. I live on 6+ acres with plenty of space for dogs to explore and enjoy, but my yard is not fenced, so all outdoor time is always supervised for safety. I have a friendly Great Pyrenees named Lily and a cat named Willow, who I bottle‑fed and raised from a kitten. They’re both very sweet, but I can keep my pets completely separate from yours if needed to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention to their behavior, keep a controlled environment, and follow any routines or rules you prefer. You can trust that your pet will be cared for with caution, love, and respect.

She treats your dog like her own!!. She is a very sweet lady and is very good at what she doesn't. I definitely will be using her again in the future!”

“Auburn was absolutely fantastic in caring for our dog, Malo. She went above and beyond not only did she do an excellent job with all the tasks, but she also sent wonderful photos throughout, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. We could tell Malo was relaxed and happy in her care. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Highly recommend Auburn to anyone looking for dependable, caring, and attentive dog care.”

“My dog loved it with Megha! I received such great photos and videos of my Nefertiti. I know she was enjoying herself and being looked after her. It’s so hard to find someone that genuinely loves animals that you can trust with your dog but that’s definitely her! Thank you so much and would definitely book again!”

“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!”

“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.”

“Emmanuel exceeded all of my expectations. He sent pictures and videos of the dogs together everyday and my dog Princess went into heat the day after we dropped her off and I was so thankful that he did not ask me to pick her back up and deny the job. He just had me buy some doggy diapers and drop them off to her. Princess, didn't even seem to mind the fact that he was in charge. In fact I would even say that she really loved her time there with Emmanuel and all of her new doggie friends. Not only will I request Emmanuel's services again but next time he will not only have my 4.4 pound Yorkie, but he will also have my boxer Chopper and my Lab Remmy. Thank you for everything.”

“Our sweet Nova girl had an absolute blast and was treated like a queen. We were so grateful to get regular updates and pictures letting us know how our girl was doing! Nova can’t wait to play with Chloe again!”

“Megan did an amazing job watching our dog! She sent us daily updates with photos and had great communication throughout the entire stay. Our dog loved it over there.”

“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.”

“I've tried a few sitters and none were bad but I've never seen our dog as happy with his tail constantly wagging as we did with Angie. She sent constant photo and video updates, communicated very well, and truly cared for our doggo.”

“Karen took care of Rita as if she were one more member of her family. She sent photos and videos every day, showing Rita resting and playing with Maggie and Osho. We could truly see how happy Rita was, and it gave us a lot of peace of mind. Thank you, Karen and family, for taking care of Rita with so much love and playtime!! 🐶💛”

“We had the pleasure of having Jillian as our dog sitter for nearly two weeks, and we couldn't be happier with her service. She provided outstanding care for our beloved Max, who seemed to have the time of his life under her watch. Jillian kept us updated with photos and videos of Max all along. Jillian's dedication to Max's well-being was evident from the start. She was attentive to his needs, ensuring he was well-fed, exercised, and, most importantly, loved. Her daily updates were a comforting touch that kept us connected to Max while we were away. Her professionalism and genuine love for animals shine through in her work. We returned to a happy, healthy pup who had clearly formed a strong bond with Jillian. It's not just about watching over a pet; it's about creating a nurturing environment, and Jillian does this flawlessly. We highly recommend Jillian to any pet owner who wants peace of mind when they can't be with their furry family member. She's truly a gem, and Max is already looking forward to his next stay with her!”
