“Took our two big energetic dogs last minute over the holidays and saved our bacon! Sent daily updates and photos to ease our minds. Would definitely recommend!”
“This couple will be at the top of my list going forward! 11 out of 10 (yes you read that right, I’m giving them 110% because they went above & beyond) and here’s why: I was on a trip for 10 days and felt very good about leaving my dog in their hands. They sent pictures of Trey having fun throughout the trip, kept me in the loop with how he was doing & sent Trey home with a personalized goodie bag of toys, treats (for both Trey and I), and my favorite part, a wallet sized Polaroid photo of Trey. That was thoughtful, takes effort and sets them apart. I would recommend them without hesitation! That’s what I gave them a 11/10 instead of 10/10, because they went the extra mile even though they didn’t have to!”
“Tasha was one of the best dog sitters I’ve used on Rover! She was very responsive, communicated well, and took excellent care of my dog. It was comforting to know my dog was in a safe environment while I was out of town. Highly recommend!”
“With a last minute request, Dooku spent a weekend with Lindsay and her family. From the onset, Lindsay was very prompt with responses, she was very communicative, pleasant and positive. I expressed a concern about Dooku being susceptible to heat exhaustion because he is a black Lab with two coats and the days were very hot (100 to 105 degrees). Lindsay put me at ease and made it clear that she would take care of him, exercise him lightly and monitor his behavior. Knowing Lindsay and her family had a swimming pool, I cautioned her about Dooku’s love for swimming (it’s a lab thing 🐕🦺🐾) and that she would be challenged keeping him out of the pool. Throughout the stay, Lindsay sent me updates, photos and in no time at all, she informed me Dooku was swimming in her pool with her family and they were having fun! There is nothing like putting your cherished pup in the hands of someone else and knowing they are safe and well taken care of. Dooku will certainly be back and Lindsay comes highly recommended! Thanks Lindsay!!!”
“Michelle & Robert were great! This was our second time leaving Koda with them. I could tell Koda got lots of love and was able to run around with his new furry friends. He even said his goodbyes before leaving and took such a long nap upon arriving home. He was a happy boy!”
“Jan was so great to work with. She was easy to communicate with, and took good care of our Bella. Her two dogs are gorgeous and Bella got asking great with them both. Jan sent pictures and gave us occasional updates while we were away. Her property is lovely, with plenty of room for the dogs to play. We’d definitely recommend her and would leave Bella with her another time. Thanks so much!”
“Pepper and Dolly were well care for and exhausted from all their dog play when I picked them up! Melissa communicated often and shared pictures about their activities and hijinks. She has a great enclosed front yard for play and exercise. I hope to book the dogs to stay with Melissa again soon.”
“Karen watched my dog Nico for about two weeks and was a pleasure to work with. She was extremely responsive and friendly, willing to work with me in an odd situation as well. Nico adored her and I will absolutely recommend her.”
“Finn had such a fun time with Christopher! He played so hard that when I picked him up he just snuggled and napped the afternoon away. I loved all the pictures I got everyday as well! Would definitely rebook with Christopher!”
“Amy was very kind with my 13-year old dog sending me multiple pictures with details of his daily activities. I appreciated that she took him for regular walks. Amy was also timely with communications regarding drop off and pick up time changes. I will definitely use Rover again and have Amy take care of my dog in the future.”
“Absolutely love the care that is provided to my dog by Vanessa! From the picture updates, communication, and how she incorporates my dog in with her animals puts my mind at easy when leaving my pet in her care. 100% would recommend and will continue to be a repeat sitter for Louie!”
“We absolutely loved having Rich and his family watch Harbor! It was our first time leaving her with someone and they were extremely responsive, sent lots of photos, and she was SO happy when we picked her up!”
“We are so happy with our experience using Haley for boarding! She has a cute dog that got along well with ours. She communicated promptly with us and sent lots of pictures.”
“Unbelievably sweet woman who may actually love my dog more than I do (didn't think that was possible)! Blown away by her total care of my boy and HIGHLY recommend her!!! Thank you, Nicole!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 21 years, and I’ve yet to meet one I didn’t want to be friends with. From energetic puppies who think socks are toys to sweet senior dogs who prefer naps over zoomies, I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I provide reliable, loving care that includes walks, feeding, playtime, cleanup, cuddles (if approved by your pup, of course!), and basic medications when needed. I know leaving your furry family member behind can be stressful, so I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands. I’m home most of the day, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles—not just a quick check-in! I do run the occasional errand, but your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine always come first. I’ll make sure they get lots of love, exercise, and updates for you, because I know you’re probably missing them as much as they’re missing you. 🐾 Your pup can expect a fenced yard, a toy box that’s always open for business, plenty of belly rubs, fresh food and water, and two energetic dogs who are usually happy to welcome a new playmate. Safety comes first, fun is a close second, and your furry family member will be treated like one of my own.
“We had a very good experience with Nalleli. She was very friendly & loving with our dog. We told her that our dog did not have much social experience with other dogs. She worked to accommodate our dog’s need to make sure that things went smoothly. My wife & I highly recommend Nalleli to watch over your pets. We would definitely use her again. Thank you Nalleli for taking care of our dog.”
“In home style Kennel. Our three mid-sized Eurasiers can be very reserved with new people, but they got on with Gabby right from the start, and were as busy loving on her as we left as they left as they were with me. Two of our dogs need special diets and medications, and that was handled as part of the bid contract- no extra fees. We even got pictures and reports emailed to us on the road! The dogs returned without a kennel smell: something I've never experienced before. I highly recommend Gabby as a kennelmaster.”
“Colleen and her family were amazing! They took my dog in for a whole week as part of their family. I think my dog enjoyed herself so much that she slept for almost two days for recovery. She made drop off and pick up easy and it was overall a great experience!!”
“Bonnie is amazing! I was very apprehensive about leaving my dog anywhere. Bonnie treated my dog as her own. She sent me daily pictures/videos and updates. She gave my dog meds and even dressed her up with a crown and bandana on her birthday. I highly recommend boarding with Bonnie. I would definitely take my dog back.”

“Kimberly was super communicative and responsive, she was also friendly and her mom was willing to jump in and help out with my medically complex kitty when needed for the first couple of visits while my kitties got comfy and familiar which was a huge win for us all I think! I’m so grateful to them both for being willing to help me out and watch my boys, I’ll absolutely be asking to book again :) Thank you Kimberly!”
About: I have always had dogs and have trained my newest dog since a pup. I have always helped with other animals including fish, cats, snakes and rabbits. I am currently in online piloting school so i will have plenty of time through out the day to take care of your fluffy friends! Depending on your home i will have lots of play time in the yard or where i can with them and will give them everything they could need while they are in my care.
“Rebecca is such a sweet and genuine soul who our boys love to see when she lets them out in the middle of the day! She is punctual, respectful, great with our pups, sends pics, thorough updates, and is just a wonderful person all around! Highly recommend!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Kimberly. My kitten bonded with her almost immediately, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She took excellent care of her, was attentive and loving, and clearly has a natural way with animals. I also really appreciated coming home to a clean and tidy house—she went above and beyond by cleaning up before leaving. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”
“Kitty loved Kaity and Kaity took excellent care of our home and Kitty while we traveled. We plan on using Kaity when ever we travel and are ready to schedule her for our next trip.”
“You couldn't ask for anyone better to watch over your pet. I contacted Beth in an emergency situation, where I needed someone to look after my cat right after she had a major surgery while I attended a funeral. Beth took wonderful care of my cat, administered multiple meds to her, and sent me lots of of updates, including pictures and videos. It put my anxious heart at ease while I was away and my cat was clearly very comfortable and calm when I picked her up. You won't regret having Beth watch your pet(s).”

“2nd time working with Jan, this time for day care, and my dog flew out the car to say hi to her, and, without saying goodbye to me, went to hang out with the other pups there. This normally anxious gal loves hanging at Jan’s!”

“Jessica was amazing with my five month old puppy Apollo! She played his favorite game with him. And took him out for his potty breaks. He was exhausted after. So I think that is a sign he had a great time! She was also super flexible with me and worked with me for pick up and drop off times that worked for me so I could do my interview and get back on the road to make it home on time!”
“This was a great experience!! He really listened to the needs I expressed and I felt really good about leaving my dogs with him. So much so that I booked another week.”
“Even-keeled and easygoing, Emily was a good choice! She cared for my golden retriever for the day and my mind was at ease, knowing she’d be watched well, played with and fed by someone who knew what they were doing. Even when I had to make MULTIPLE last minute time changes in the schedule, Emily took it like a champ and without complaint! My golden seemed her normal dorky self after her stay!”
About: I have 20+ years of experience caring for dogs plus cats, goats, birds and small animals. I previously owned Bon Jour Pet Sitters and managed a Veterinary Hospital for 7 years. I am comfortable administering medication and loving on special needs pets. I am home all day if you are boarding your dog with me, I won’t take any jobs outside of my house so I can give your babies all my attention. I have a large fenced yard with lots of room to play. I also have 2 pug pups that LOVE having new dog friends! My dogs can have as little or as much interaction with your dog(s) as you would like. Your dogs are also welcome to hangout on the couch and watch tv if that’s more their speed.
About: We have two high energy dogs that require regular exercise so I understand how hard it is to find a sitter who can meet that need. While your best friend is with us they can expect to get an off leash, 3-5 mile adventure every other day. I am trained and comfortable with an e collar but if your dog does not have good recall, no worries, I always carry a long line. Our home is best suited for medium to large dogs. I am a stay at home mom with 2 large dogs of my own. My dogs need regular off leash walks so you can expect your dog to get out plenty while with us. I have a large, fenced in yard. If I have to leave the house without the dogs I have spare kennels and a furbo dog camera to keep an eye on everyone.
About: I have been taking care of pets snice I was 9 years old. I have care of fish, dogs, cats, ferrets, and mice. I feed them make sure they have water. I given them baths as well.

But the animals have their own space. I also have a little brother who goes to school. I have a good space in my house where they dog can run around and play I also have a park right across the street. So I can walk the dog there and play with them.
About: I’ve owned and cared for animals my entire life — from dogs and cats to smaller pets like birds. Animals have always been a huge part of my world, and I can’t imagine life without them. I enjoy training my own dog and use positive reinforcement to help build trust and good habits. I’m comfortable working with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from energetic puppies to calm seniors — and I always tailor care to meet their individual needs. I have a large, fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe outdoor play, exercise, and potty breaks. I’m also experienced with administering medication (oral, topical, or drops) and following special routines, feeding schedules, or dietary needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every animal like family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care — just like they would at home. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send photo or video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Hi! I’m Michelle — a lifelong animal lover who works from home, so I’m with my dog (and yours!) all day. I love spending time outdoors hiking, paddleboarding, and going on walks. I also attend dog training classes a few times a week, which helps me stay in tune with canine behavior and care. Your pets will get plenty of attention, love, and company while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I work from home full-time, so pets in my care are never left alone for long periods. My dog stays in my office with me during the day, and your dog is welcome to join us — or enjoy their own quiet space if they prefer. I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and respectful of every pet owner’s home and routine. I follow all care instructions closely to ensure consistency, safety, and peace of mind. My reputation and your trust mean a great deal to me, and I’m committed to providing the same level of care I would want for my own dog.
“Bre was great with both of our pups. They were worn out from playing so hard both days we picked them up. We will definitely be reaching out to her again next time we’re in the area & need a pup sitter. Thank you!”
“First time using Beth to dog sit and she is such a sweet lady and loves dogs! Extremely responsive and flexible. She’s so knowledgeable and attentive. And for our 1.5 year old German wire haired pointer - so patient! Highly recommend her!”
About: Your loved ones will feel at home in the country. I work from home with law enforcement all around the US, so I'm always available for drop ins or vacation watch. I'm also a volunteer EMT. My 2 teens love to play with our visitors, so bring their favorite toy! I have 5 acres, fully secure fenced in yard for small and large dogs, with plenty of space for your pets to run and play. I have 3 gated areas for small, med, large dogs. I have Multiple large (4x8x6) kennels so your dogs have a safe space to eat or take a break from playing with the others. We have walking trails by the house where we go on walks. It's a peaceful, relaxing environment where every dog and cat quickly settles in and feels at home. Our furry visitors naturally adapt to the calm, laid-back atmosphere, making their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Message me with any questions!!

About: I love dogs of all sizes and breeds. I am a true dog person through and through. I have four of my own that I care for as they are like my children. I currently work full time but would like to hangout with some fluffy friends on the side whenever I can. I am able to come take dogs for a walk after work or have them stay with me during my work day since I work from home as long as they are friendly with other dogs. My dogs are all up to date of vaccines as well. The weekends I usually am pretty open for drop by visits and dog walks. I have a fenced in yard so if I did have a dog stay with me during the day I work from home and have a fenced back yard with a dog door. If visiting a dogs home I would respect and follow their wishes to help take care and maintain their dogs needs.

About: There hasn’t been a time in my life where I haven’t been around a dog. I’ve been with the dogs throughout their walks of life. From puppies to seniors. I have also cared for and loved several other animals. I have experience in caring for rabbits, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and birds. I also know CPR for dogs. My schedule is open so I have most days completely free! I bring my work with me so I’ll be able to stay with your pets all day. I take pets on exciting walks, and play with them if they are in the mood. I also have a knowledge of trails and other areas for walking for dogs that need deeper exercise. I also do light training, commands like sit/stay I have taught many times to dogs and also exercised with my own. Some dogs require more mental stimulation than others, so it’s best to keep them busy.

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. I’m experienced with a variety of breeds, personalities, activity levels, sizes and ages. I currently have a puppy so I am up to date on puppy training and care! If your dog is in my care, they will have a constant source of entertainment, from fetch, tug a wars, walks, hikes and snuggles. I work from home so I have plenty of time to give your pet my full attention. I work part time as a freelance writer, and the rest I spend working for rover! My child is in kindergarten so she is gone most of the day. I have a fenced yard, a doggy door and a large dog crate for dogs who love to den. I live in a low traffic culdesac which is great for dog walks. Less noise and less distractions. I have a 4 month old puppy who I’ve been training (behavioral, social and manners) since day one. He is very friendly and social, loves dogs and cats!
About: I have owned pets since I was young and I was the one to take care of them, I also had neighbors that always had pets and I would go over and feed them everyday while they were gone. I've plenty of experience taking care of pets and as some people say, I have a way with animals. I don't have another job at the moment, so I can be there whenever I am sitting your pets! You are my number one priority! I will take your pets for walks or play with them, keep them entertained, feed them when they need to be fed and make sure they take naps. You tell me what I need to do, or what needs done and I'll do it, I'm very good at following orders.
About: I've taken care of and had pets my whole life. I currently have a German shorthanded pointer, and a crested gecko. I've done a lot of training with my current dog, and I've actually taken dog first aid classes and been taught how to do CPR on dogs as well as recognizing heat stroke and how to prevent it. I have taken care of elderly pets that needed medication including shots, help walking, and more. As well as puppies and kittens that were being potty and house trained, needed lots of attention. I'm currently working, and going to school part-time so I'll have lot of time during the day to take care of your animals! I take safety very seriously, in my own home my dog is crate trained and we have a fenced in yard. I always communicate with the owners about their pets specific needs, For example if you had a pet that tries to get out of the door making sure I take extra precautions around doors, or if they're dog reactive making sure I'm always giving them as much space as possible even if that means turning around and walking somewhere else instead.
About: Like many animal lovers, I raised cats and dogs the majority of my life. Even raised 9 pups from my own dog! I’d like to help take care of your pets with you. My previous work had me travel for 3 years so I understand how challenging it can be to have someone watch your pets. You wonder if they’ll be as nice, gentle, caring, and active as you are with them. (Or if your pet will pick them over you for being away so long!) I will be as, if not more, attentive to your pets while you are away. Like the title says - I’m a realtor! My schedule is open and most of my work can be done through my phone or laptop. I do go to the gym and can adjust my schedule to be morning or evening depending on your needs. Early start for my dogs! 5am walks to start their day along with clean bowls before every feeding! I use a filtered water system for them, but that’s also cleaned weekly. If your pets are like mine then all that hair is a bit messy. So, brushing is a must! They do like to get on the couch so vacuuming is a must too! No kennel for them. Just their own cots. As for bathing and grooming - as needed.
About: I was always the one growing up that took on the caretaker role when it comes to animals. Making sure all animals are fed and have clean water and bowls. My favorite part of caring for pets is walks and playing with them. When my dog had babies I was there the entire time making sure mama was doing well, giving attention and making sure i could give support when needed. I grew up with multiple dogs at once and I understand it takes time and effort to care for them. I am available after 2pm monday through Fridays and on weekends I am free all day. I am looking for some companionship with cute dogs as I don't own a dog currently. I actually had an ankle injury in the beginning of this year and I am recovering well, just need extra cash to pay for some medical bills. I would love to spend my other free time spending it with your fur babies. I am new to rover app. Gaining your animals trust is very important to me. I will always be watching your animal when taken outside even if your yard is gated.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a home full of happy paws and shells—currently sharing my life with 3 playful cats, 2 lovable dogs, and one very chill turtle. I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and truly believe they are family. My passion for animals runs deep, and I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for your pets while you’re away. Whether you’re on vacation or just need a helping hand, I’m here to give your pets the same love, attention, and care I give my own. Creating a safe, happy, and stress-free experience for both pets and their families is my top priority! Lets set up a meet and greet with your fur babies ❤️🐶 I work full-time from 8-5. I’m always happy to accommodate early morning or evening drop-in visits before or after work, I just need prior communication. I’m committed to providing reliable and loving care for your pets around my schedule. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with specific dates or times you have in mind—I’ll do my best to work with your needs and ensure your pets are well cared for while you’re away. Creating a safe, trustworthy, and nurturing environment for my pets is always my top priority. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly home where each animal has their own comfortable space to relax and feel secure. Safety comes first—I ensure all areas are free of hazards, food and water are always fresh, and routines are followed consistently to reduce stress. Trust is built through gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and daily one-on-one attention, so each pet feels valued and understood. I stay attuned to their individual needs and personalities, always observing for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to create a calm, loving atmosphere where every pet can thrive, feel safe, and truly be part of the family.
About: Hi! I’m Callie, a 19 year old with a lifelong love for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for them. I grew up showing pigs and rabbits, and helped raise everything from cows and goats to chickens, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and even hamsters! Being around animals isn’t just something I enjoy, it’s second nature. I understand the routines, the quirks, and the care that each pet needs to feel happy, safe, and loved. Whether your pet needs a brisk walk, a check-in while you're away, or a little extra TLC, I’m here to help. You can count on me for reliable, kind-hearted care, just like you’d give if you were home. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members. Let’s make sure they’re well cared for while you’re away! I graduated high school in 2024. Since I have been working on my long term plans. I have tried a couple things and am doing Rover while I work to find something long term and to satisfy my love for animals. I come to your home and use your tools as directed so that your pet feels the love and is comfortable with the process. Its a win win!

“Took our two big energetic dogs last minute over the holidays and saved our bacon! Sent daily updates and photos to ease our minds. Would definitely recommend!”
“This couple will be at the top of my list going forward! 11 out of 10 (yes you read that right, I’m giving them 110% because they went above & beyond) and here’s why: I was on a trip for 10 days and felt very good about leaving my dog in their hands. They sent pictures of Trey having fun throughout the trip, kept me in the loop with how he was doing & sent Trey home with a personalized goodie bag of toys, treats (for both Trey and I), and my favorite part, a wallet sized Polaroid photo of Trey. That was thoughtful, takes effort and sets them apart. I would recommend them without hesitation! That’s what I gave them a 11/10 instead of 10/10, because they went the extra mile even though they didn’t have to!”
“Tasha was one of the best dog sitters I’ve used on Rover! She was very responsive, communicated well, and took excellent care of my dog. It was comforting to know my dog was in a safe environment while I was out of town. Highly recommend!”
“With a last minute request, Dooku spent a weekend with Lindsay and her family. From the onset, Lindsay was very prompt with responses, she was very communicative, pleasant and positive. I expressed a concern about Dooku being susceptible to heat exhaustion because he is a black Lab with two coats and the days were very hot (100 to 105 degrees). Lindsay put me at ease and made it clear that she would take care of him, exercise him lightly and monitor his behavior. Knowing Lindsay and her family had a swimming pool, I cautioned her about Dooku’s love for swimming (it’s a lab thing 🐕🦺🐾) and that she would be challenged keeping him out of the pool. Throughout the stay, Lindsay sent me updates, photos and in no time at all, she informed me Dooku was swimming in her pool with her family and they were having fun! There is nothing like putting your cherished pup in the hands of someone else and knowing they are safe and well taken care of. Dooku will certainly be back and Lindsay comes highly recommended! Thanks Lindsay!!!”
“Michelle & Robert were great! This was our second time leaving Koda with them. I could tell Koda got lots of love and was able to run around with his new furry friends. He even said his goodbyes before leaving and took such a long nap upon arriving home. He was a happy boy!”
“Jan was so great to work with. She was easy to communicate with, and took good care of our Bella. Her two dogs are gorgeous and Bella got asking great with them both. Jan sent pictures and gave us occasional updates while we were away. Her property is lovely, with plenty of room for the dogs to play. We’d definitely recommend her and would leave Bella with her another time. Thanks so much!”
“Karen watched my dog Nico for about two weeks and was a pleasure to work with. She was extremely responsive and friendly, willing to work with me in an odd situation as well. Nico adored her and I will absolutely recommend her.”
“Finn had such a fun time with Christopher! He played so hard that when I picked him up he just snuggled and napped the afternoon away. I loved all the pictures I got everyday as well! Would definitely rebook with Christopher!”
“Amy was very kind with my 13-year old dog sending me multiple pictures with details of his daily activities. I appreciated that she took him for regular walks. Amy was also timely with communications regarding drop off and pick up time changes. I will definitely use Rover again and have Amy take care of my dog in the future.”
“Absolutely love the care that is provided to my dog by Vanessa! From the picture updates, communication, and how she incorporates my dog in with her animals puts my mind at easy when leaving my pet in her care. 100% would recommend and will continue to be a repeat sitter for Louie!”
“We absolutely loved having Rich and his family watch Harbor! It was our first time leaving her with someone and they were extremely responsive, sent lots of photos, and she was SO happy when we picked her up!”
“We are so happy with our experience using Haley for boarding! She has a cute dog that got along well with ours. She communicated promptly with us and sent lots of pictures.”
“Unbelievably sweet woman who may actually love my dog more than I do (didn't think that was possible)! Blown away by her total care of my boy and HIGHLY recommend her!!! Thank you, Nicole!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 21 years, and I’ve yet to meet one I didn’t want to be friends with. From energetic puppies who think socks are toys to sweet senior dogs who prefer naps over zoomies, I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I provide reliable, loving care that includes walks, feeding, playtime, cleanup, cuddles (if approved by your pup, of course!), and basic medications when needed. I know leaving your furry family member behind can be stressful, so I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands. I’m home most of the day, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles—not just a quick check-in! I do run the occasional errand, but your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine always come first. I’ll make sure they get lots of love, exercise, and updates for you, because I know you’re probably missing them as much as they’re missing you. 🐾 Your pup can expect a fenced yard, a toy box that’s always open for business, plenty of belly rubs, fresh food and water, and two energetic dogs who are usually happy to welcome a new playmate. Safety comes first, fun is a close second, and your furry family member will be treated like one of my own.
“In home style Kennel. Our three mid-sized Eurasiers can be very reserved with new people, but they got on with Gabby right from the start, and were as busy loving on her as we left as they left as they were with me. Two of our dogs need special diets and medications, and that was handled as part of the bid contract- no extra fees. We even got pictures and reports emailed to us on the road! The dogs returned without a kennel smell: something I've never experienced before. I highly recommend Gabby as a kennelmaster.”
“Colleen and her family were amazing! They took my dog in for a whole week as part of their family. I think my dog enjoyed herself so much that she slept for almost two days for recovery. She made drop off and pick up easy and it was overall a great experience!!”
“Bonnie is amazing! I was very apprehensive about leaving my dog anywhere. Bonnie treated my dog as her own. She sent me daily pictures/videos and updates. She gave my dog meds and even dressed her up with a crown and bandana on her birthday. I highly recommend boarding with Bonnie. I would definitely take my dog back.”
“Dusty seemed super happy and comfortable during his stay with Aimee and Derek! They were super friendly, accommodating, and kind. I’m so glad I found them because I hope to have Dusty stay with them again and again in the future if they’ll have him. Don’t hesitate to book with them-your pup will be in great hands!”
“There aren't enough good things that I can say about Chad and his family! Not only was he super responsive, but I definitely felt like my dog was in good hands. Throughout my trip, I received many photo updates, usually when my dog was out and about playing with other pups. Having someone that you can depend on is paramount and I hit the jackpot with Chad. THANK YOU!!! P.S. Jovie says hello 🙂”
