“Meghan was absolutely wonderful! It was our first time using Rover and she put every worry at ease. She sent photos and updates and was extremely flexible and quick to respond. We’ll definitely be coming to her for future dog sitting needs!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Allison is an absolute gem 10/10, would trust her with Shiloh (and my peace of mind) again in a heartbeat! I was nervous leaving my sweet, timid girl Shiloh for the first time in years because of her separation anxiety, but Allison made the entire experience stress-free and actually joyful. From the moment we met, her calm energy and genuine love for dogs put both Shiloh and me at ease. She asked all the right questions, really listened to Shiloh’s quirks, and followed her routine to the letter. While I was away, Allison sent the most wonderful updates and a photo of Shiloh snuggling on the couch with her. You could tell Shiloh felt completely safe and loved. Shiloh clearly adores Allison and her sweet family and I can’t thank her enough for giving me total peace of mind on my trip. If you have a shy or anxious pup, Allison is the caregiver you’ve been looking for. She’s patient, attentive, communicative, and truly exceptional. We’re already looking forward to booking her again! Thank you, Allison, for loving Shiloh like your own! 🐾❤️”

We highly recommend this wonderful couple to take care of your buddy. We're already booking our next trip.”

“My dog had such a good time. I was so relieved to have found Ashley because I hate leaving him. She sent a ton of pictures and updates while I was away.”
“In our greet and meet interview our dog felt comfortable right away with the other dogs. We felt a relief as this is the first time we leave our dog with someone else that is not family or friend. We could see that is a caring family and he would be treated as part of it. During his stay, we got pictures showing us how great he was doing. That was something our family really liked.”

“Ginger & Layla enjoyed their overnight stay with Rhonda. She sent multiple pictures and updates of their visit. Usually, my dogs take a couple of days to be comfortable to eat their meals. Not this time! They both ate dinner after dropping off and breakfast the next morning! They bonded well with her two dogs, Nico and Piper and watched TV to together! Ginger loves to watch TV. When I picked them up the following morning, both my dogs were happy to see me, and I could tell they were well cared for. Ginger will become very vocal with me if she is not happy when she is left behind. She was not fussy at all! In fact, her tail was wagging, she had a big smile on her face and let me know she was content and cared for. Layla also road home with a big smile on her face! I will certainly allow Rhonda to keep my dogs again! She is excellent!”

“Aaron did a marvelous job caring for our little cat! We are so thankful for him helping us while we were out of town. Aaron was very caring and thorough and did everything we asked for our little guy. We received a summary of their time together for each visit and soo many sweet pictures of our kitty! I highly recommend contacting Aaron for all your pet needs. We will absolutely be booking with him again. Thank you Aaron <3”
“Nikki and Britney were absolutely amazing. From the amazing photos to the wonderful cleanup they did for us prior to our returning home, we are happy to know we have a trustworthy couple to look after our fur babies when we are away. 10/10 would recommend! :)”
About: I've had cat's in my life since I was very young including the care of kittens as young as newborn. After working in the petcare industry for over 15 years I have experience with all animals. I also have cat grooming experience.
“Lexi is a very nice young woman. We reached out to her the day before we left after having a cancellation from another cat sitter. She could not have been more accommodating, staying at our house at the last minute, and we appreciate the care she provided to our baby, Cleo.”
About: I’ve had many pups in my life but right now I do not have any pups living in my home. I’ve been enjoying spending time with all my rover friends! My home has a fenced backyard and a common area dog run. I work from home so I will be around to play, give treats and go on walks all day! Dogs are allowed on the furniture and beds here. Working from home means I will be hanging with the pups almost all day every day except for errands. Walks every couple hours and lots of snuggles on the couch! There are no children in the home. I have a fenced yard for running and playing. I have a large kennel/crate inside the house in case your pup needs it and have lots of toys and dog beds for lounging. Stop by for a meet and greet if you would like before booking! I typically only leave the house for an hour or so a day to use the gym down the road. The pups are free to roam my home as if it was their own while I am out. Doors stay locked and no one enters unless the pets are secured so no one darts out the door! Food stays off countertops so there are no human snacks available to be snuck. Poop is scooped after every go!
“This was my first time with Taylor and it was a great experience. She is very responsive and timely. My pet had very specific needs and she was able to meet all his needs and even came to meet Otis before the scheduled visits. She left detailed notes of how the visits went and left pictures of my pet. I would definitely recommend Taylor!”
“Brooke did a wonderful job watching our kitty. He came home very happy. We received pictures the entire week, so we felt very assured that he was in good hands. I will definitely go back to Brooke again to watch our boy!”
“Kayvan was always on-time, gave details about the visit with my cat, sent along a photo each night, and did a great job giving her food and medication. I felt like she was in great hands :)”
About: I adore all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and I now have my own little family. I have a kitten named Duck Duck and a gecko named Gecki Gavito (legal name Larry) I work a 9-5 during the week but have open availability in the early morning, evenings, and weekends. I am also a full time college student so I have no problem hanging out with animals while I work! Looking after a pet in their own home is easier in my experience. The familiar environment puts them at ease and it's fun to play with their favorite toys and see what their routine is.
“Adrianna was great. She was very accommodating to my very last minute schedule change and she kept me updated on how my cats were doing. One of my cats in particular is pretty sensitive to new people and she seemed to warm up to Adrianna nicely. It was great to get daily pictures while I was away and see my cats settling in.”
“Kristi was a great. We needed someone immediately due to a sick family member in the hospital and Kristi came over and loved on our pups in our absence. She was a great help!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Orchard
“We had our two springers stay at Sam and Genna’s for daycare yesterday for the first time. First, my babies came home happy and tired (exactly what I was looking for 😂). I can tell they loved their time there. Second, Sam is kind and attentive with dogs, responsive with questions, and I love that he has a “safety first” approach. You never know what could happen so it gave me extra comfort that they are supervising the dogs during playtime, not just letting the dogs play on their own. I’m sold as a repeat customer! We’ll be back guys, your service is a gem and you’ve met all our needs in our search for a reliable sitter!!”
“Amy was the best! Not only did she take such great care of my dog, she also went above and beyond to allow me to drop off a little early and pick up a little late. 10/10 experience with her!!”
“Very easy to work with and she did everything to make our little one comfortable being at the sitters the first time. Truly wish she was in our area (we were traveling for this event) because we would absolutely use her again.”
“Although we only required a few hours of dog sitting, I was impressed by Elise’s caring and engaged personality. Will definitely keep her in mind when back in Boise and if sitting is necessary.”
“Shelby was very thoughtful with her care and lovely to work with. We met beforehand at the dog park, and she is very friendly and flexible. Her pups are very friendly and well behaved and my pup enjoyed playing with them. Would definitely recommend and will be reaching out to her for future needs!”
“Elena was amazing with our Sadie! It was wonderful to know we have a great, safe place for Sadie when we are in town visiting family. Sadie had a great time and was pretty tired playing with Epha all day. We will definitely be back! Elena was kind, patient and understanding of our schedule change. She was flexible, and respectful to both us and Sadie. This was a great fit for us!”
“My pup had a great time. She had just been to the vet and gotten stitches and Daniel followed the doctor's orders so she didn't have any further injury. She was happy to go there.”
“Mary was absolutely awesome! She helped out last minute with a meet and greet and watched my little Finn during my first week back at school. This was Finn’s first time away from me, and she made him so comfortable that he was excited to come back every time. She was incredibly responsive, went above and beyond, and made everything so easy. Finn always came back calm, happy, and ready to cozy up. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Skye and Nolan are fantastic! They took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved all the attention. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”
About: I’m a calm, intuitive caregiver with years of experience welcoming dogs of all ages, sizes, and abilities into my home. From tiny senior chihuahuas to blind or deaf pups, energetic puppies, and giant breeds, I’ve supported them all with patience, structure, and genuine love. My gentle giant of a Labrador, Deyo, is a natural companion who helps other dogs feel safe, relaxed, and included. As a Reiki Master, I also offer optional daily Reiki sessions for dogs who benefit from extra emotional support, grounding, or relaxation. I’m skilled in senior care, reading dog body language, supporting anxious or sensitive pups, and creating a peaceful, nurturing environment where every dog feels truly at home. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I work from home as an intuitive energy healer with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to offer frequent walks, plenty of supervision, and a calm, consistent environment for boarding. Dogs are with me throughout the day getting fresh air, attention, and companionship, evenings are relaxed and cozy, perfect for winding down. Your pup is never overlooked and always cared for like family. In my home, dogs enjoy a calm, loving environment with plenty of attention and supervision. My home has a fenced‑in backyard where pups get casual walks, outdoor time, and lots of built‑in play with Deyo, my gentle 97‑lb Lab who loves making new friends. Inside, dogs get cozy rest time, a predictable routine, and plenty of snuggles from the whole family. Whether your pup wants to play, explore, or just relax, they’re cared for like one of our own.
“Our dog, George, loved Michael and his family! They have a wonderful fenced yard where George could get out all of his puppy energy and treated George like part of their family while he was there. We highly recommend Michael!!”
About: Hi, I’m Megan! 🐾 For the past 7+ years I have devoted my life to caring for animals! Currently working as a shelter clinic manager, I have plenty of experience with both medical and behavioral sides of animal care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities while they’re in my care. I also have extra help at home! My sister lacy, who is a stay-at-home pet lover with pet-sitting experience, helps provide additional attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. This means your pet gets plenty of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and love—even when life gets busy. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, go on walks, or just relax, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs, medications (including oral meds and all injection route's if needed), seniors, and those who may need a little extra TLC. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet behind, so I will provide as much communication as possible so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I treat every pet like family and strive to make their stay feel like a fun, safe “vacation” while you’re away. Pricing information: For Boise specifically, most sitters seem to fall into these ranges: * Budget/new sitter: $25–$35/night * Average experienced sitter: $40–$55/night * Very experienced/medical care or constant supervision: $60–$90+/night Since you work in vet med and have shelter/medical experience, if you were pet sitting at your house, you could likely charge on the higher end—especially if you’re comfortable with meds, seniors, post-op care, injections, etc. A vet-tech level sitter in Boise could reasonably start around $50–$75/night per dog. Availability & Schedule 🐾 I work Sunday–Wednesday, but your pet will still receive plenty of love, attention, and care! I have Thursday, Friday, and Saturday fully off, allowing for lots of one-on-one time, walks, playtime, and cuddles. To make sure pets always have companionship and supervision, my sister is home 100% of the time as a stay-at-home animal lover with pet-sitting experience. Between the two of us, your pet will have consistent care, attention, potty breaks, and lots of love throughout the day. Our Home Environment 🐾 We strive to provide a fun, loving, and safe home-away-from-home experience for every pet in our care! Our home has a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of space to run, sniff, explore, and play safely. We also have three smaller, friendly dogs who love making new friends (while always respecting each pet’s comfort level and personality). Whether your pup enjoys playing, cuddling, or relaxing, we make sure they feel comfortable and included. There are plenty of cozy dog beds, toys, treats, and attention to go around! We treat every pet like family and do our best to keep their routine as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Safety, supervision, love, and lots of tail wags are always our priority.
“Megan was amazing! I felt comfortable, like my dog was safe and in good hands. She made sure to send me pictures and keep me updated throughout the day which I appreciated!”
About: Hi! I’m Hazel, a senior in high school preparing to head to college. My mom is Patricia and she and I and family team to provide pet services, but I am the main person. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve had experience with all kinds of animals, including ducks, chicks, kittens, goats, pigs, and of course dogs. Right now, I have two dogs, Comanche and Chalko, who I’ve raised since they were puppies, as well as a kitten I helped bottle-feed after it was found at a very young age. Taking care of them has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs. I truly love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs a fun, energetic walk, lots of attention and playtime, or just someone to make them feel safe and loved while you’re away, I’m here to help. You can trust that your pet will be in caring, reliable hands with me! I am at work from 8-4 generally, but have flexibility, and available outside of those hours. My daughters have other availability during the day around class schedules. I am home and available all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and most holidays. I am home all day for full weeks during Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, and Spring Break. I am home during summer months. I take dogs who are kennel trained and do not allow pets on furniture. I match my care to your loved companion's individual needs. Some dogs love being outside and running around, some love to lay on a dog bed by the fire. I understand some pets are older and need a gentle approach and others are high energy and need lots of movement and interaction. I take careful care that your pet is secured and not able to leave the property. I have a huge fenced yard and a field with ample space which allows your pet to in pet heaven! Its a fun time!
“My family and I were visiting from out of state and wanted to go to the zoo so we needed last minute doggy daycare. DeHanna was so responsive when messaging. She was kind and understanding with my girls needs. When I picked my girl she showed no signs of stress and was super happy. I would book with her again! Highly recommend and thank you!”

“Elena has been helping with Maze twice a week for a few weeks now and she loves her! She is always excited for her walks. I am very thankful for the care that Elena shows to Maze.”
About: Hi there! Im used to watching other people's pets and usually am requested to do such on base or off base. I also volunteered often for the humane society and owned several dogs myself. Military has made it more difficult to own a dog so taking care other dogs is a bit easier. If you need my number please shoot me a msg! (I dont have it listed since its linked to an account I forgot) My schedule is usually rather free most days now. If you let me know in advance I can happily give you my schedule which usually consist of appointments. There's a huge fenced yard in the back and the house is always cooled. They're no kids here either. I certainly would welcome a house tour if you feel inclined to.
“Britney and Nikki have a great attitude and are very kind. Asked all the right questions. Happy with their responsiveness and care for our 2 dogs. They even sent a bunch of pictures from their walk. Would book again with Britney and Nikki!”
About: I’m great with all ages — from training wiggly puppies to giving gentle, patient care to seniors. I read pet body language like a second language, stick to routines, handle meds confidently, and stay calm during any little surprises. I've been around animals my entire life and believe each one of them is deserving of affection and connection. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I plan my days around consistent check-ins, walks, and playtime. I’m organized, flexible, and make sure each pet gets dedicated attention. Whether it’s early-morning visits, midday walks, or evening cuddle sessions, I build my schedule to give every pet the time and care they need- no BS! As long as instructions are throughly talked about, I will give your pets whatever proper care they need in whatever environment they are comfortable in!
About: I have grown up with many animals in my household including birds, rodents, chickens, cats, and of course dogs. I love working with animals and getting the opportunity to give them the love and care that they need. Once I moved out and started school, I decided to get my own dog, and it was the best decision I ever made! I have a three-year-old blue heeler who needs tons of attention and care and from this experience I have learned a lot about dogs and how to care for certain breeds properly. I am currently a college student on summer break looking to fill my time with an activity I will enjoy. I am free whenever needed any day or time of the week. I live in a duplex home and have a fenced backyard with a community dog park available. I do have one dog myself with an available crate if needed to crate your pet.
“Elana took very good care of my dog, Moose. I would highly recommend her services to anyone using the rover app. She made sure to give my pup treats, and also noticed some hairloss around his collar. I will be continuing to book her for walks moving forward.”

About: I used to own a farm where I watched dogs for friends, neighbors and family. My 3 boys would help and it was a pure joy. We now have a large house and fenced yard that allows the dogs to walk and play. It is a passion of mine to treat dogs as family, with kindness and love. They are a gift for us that warm our hearts and bring joy into our lives. We understand how important dogs are to you and the love they give. With me your dogs will get exercise and will be treated with love and care. It will be a blessing to have an opportunity to protect and watch over your dogs providing you assurance and security knowing they will be cared for properly. I am self employed and work from home. Your dog will never be left alone and will receive attention all days when staying with us. I have a fenced in yard and access from the house through garage to the outside yard. Plenty of room to run and enjoy the outside.
About: Caring for your pet would be a heart-warming privilege. I do not have a pet right now, but I was raised on a farm that instilled a lifelong love of animals. My childhood experiences include horses, cattle, and dogs. I also supported my children's 4H projects with cows, horses, pigs, goats, sheep, and rabbits. In addition, I have had laying hens. My friends also call on me to tend to their animals and gardens while they are away. I can accommodate most routines, though I am committed two days per week for four hours both days. I would also like to continue to substitute teach while caring for your pet. Together, we can create a schedule that meets your pet's needs. I will feed, play with, and walk your pet, carefully following any daily routines and guidelines you provide to ensure their comfort, safety, and well-being.
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 have dog sat for family friends for a few years, I always have a great time and love being around cats and dogs, I always hear great feedback and have gained skills from working with different types of dogs (hyper, timid, untrained etc.) I have had a few dogs personally and enjoyed training them and being active with them, overall being around animals is something I enjoy I mostly work mornings and I am typically off by 9-11am, during the week I have all day free after then and love to stay busy! When caring for animals I always have a few small rules for myself to ensure they stay safe, I never leave food in their reach, I always make sure to feed/water/take them out as much is needed, I try to learn the animals as much as I can to know how they react in situations.
About: I’ve worked with all kinds of pets! Cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From playful puppies to older pets who need a little extra care, I’ve done it all. I’ve also helped pets with health needs, like giving medicine or taking care of them after surgery. Whether you need someone for a short walk or a longer stay, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I have lots of experience with both bigger breeds and little breeds of dogs! Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine.

I’m used to adjusting to different routines depending on the pet, and I always make them a priority. When I care for pets in my home, I make sure they have a safe and comfortable place to rest and play. I follow their feeding schedule and give any medicine they need. I spend time playing with them and making sure they feel loved. When I care for pets in the client’s home, I follow all their instructions and keep the pet’s routine the same. I make sure the pet feels safe and happy in their own home. I also keep the place clean and give updates to the owner so they know how their pet is doing.

About: Animals have always naturally gravitated toward me, and caring for dogs has never felt like “work” to me I genuinely love it. I’ve helped watch and care for dogs for family and friends many times over the years, and I’m the type of person who pays close attention to their energy, comfort, and routines. I know every dog is different and I’m very patient with shy, anxious, high-energy, or affectionate dogs alike. I am very intuitive with their needs and and some people even call me a “dog whisperer”, because of how in tune I am. I love spending quality time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing outside, relaxing together, or simply making sure they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. I also understand how important updates and communication are when someone trusts you with their pet, so I always aim to be dependable, attentive, and caring. I currently work as an online life coach, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care, walks, check-ins, overnight stays, and quality time with your dog. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals so I’m able to give them lots of attention, companionship, and care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My schedule is very open and flexible, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and needs. I always want pets to feel safe, calm, and comfortable while in my care. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine so they can feel as relaxed and at home as possible. I’m very patient and attentive, and I make sure pets have plenty of love, supervision, playtime, water, potty breaks, and a peaceful environment. I also understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for your pet, so I always aim to provide updates, photos, and dependable care so owners can feel fully at ease while they’re away.🐶❤️ I’m also a very clean and hygienic person and I always treat people’s homes with respect and care. I genuinely like keeping spaces tidy, and I aim to leave your home just as clean or even cleaner than I found it.

About: I love dogs and cats. I grew up with both. I will treat your pet the way I would want mine to be treated with care, adoration and respect. I know that when you are away it can lead to increased stress for your animal and I will foster an environment that feels safe by maintaining their schedule and routines, enforcing boundaries and giving them the attention or space they need. I love a good snuggle, pet and long walk! I have experience with productive walk techniques to ensure your dog will get the most out of their walk. They'll feel better physically and mentally and have a greater sense of accomplishment and self-worth. I am happy to spend time with you to teach you the tools and techniques I use. Productive walks not only work wonders for your dog's mental health but can do the same for your enjoyment and bonding on a walk and can save your shoulders and knees from a dog who pulls. I look forward to meeting you and your pet!

“Meghan was absolutely wonderful! It was our first time using Rover and she put every worry at ease. She sent photos and updates and was extremely flexible and quick to respond. We’ll definitely be coming to her for future dog sitting needs!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Allison is an absolute gem 10/10, would trust her with Shiloh (and my peace of mind) again in a heartbeat! I was nervous leaving my sweet, timid girl Shiloh for the first time in years because of her separation anxiety, but Allison made the entire experience stress-free and actually joyful. From the moment we met, her calm energy and genuine love for dogs put both Shiloh and me at ease. She asked all the right questions, really listened to Shiloh’s quirks, and followed her routine to the letter. While I was away, Allison sent the most wonderful updates and a photo of Shiloh snuggling on the couch with her. You could tell Shiloh felt completely safe and loved. Shiloh clearly adores Allison and her sweet family and I can’t thank her enough for giving me total peace of mind on my trip. If you have a shy or anxious pup, Allison is the caregiver you’ve been looking for. She’s patient, attentive, communicative, and truly exceptional. We’re already looking forward to booking her again! Thank you, Allison, for loving Shiloh like your own! 🐾❤️”
“Dolly loves visiting with Katie, Ben, and their kids. She gets so much love and attention from this wonderful family. We always know Dolly will be well cared for with them.”
“In our greet and meet interview our dog felt comfortable right away with the other dogs. We felt a relief as this is the first time we leave our dog with someone else that is not family or friend. We could see that is a caring family and he would be treated as part of it. During his stay, we got pictures showing us how great he was doing. That was something our family really liked.”
“Awesome people. Awesome environment. Zyra had a great visit and learned to be more social thanks for the extra effort by Sam And Genna. Highly recommend.”
“Chloe was great and is very kind! She made sure our dog was well cared for and loved while he stayed with her. We appreciated that she kept us updated on how he was doing so we didn’t have to worry about him at all!”
“Emily was wonderful! She provided photos, updates, and was very flexible with pickup/drop off times. It’s clear Emily loves animals and Beanie seemed to feel comfortable with her right away. Will definitely be reaching out in the future!”
“We never worry about Mimi when she is with Benita and family. Mimi is never stressed about going and is always happy and healthy when we pick her up. Thank you, Benita!”
“Great first experience with Lori. Sent lots of photos of my 2 dogs. Above average communication. Got my dogs plenty of exercise. I will be booking Lori next time I go out of town. Thanks again Lori!”
“Our dog had a wonderful time here and no doubt yours will too. They will treat your pup like their own and what more could you want! Sent lots of pictures and updates so we knew our pup was in good hands the whole week. Thank you Debbie and Ryan!”
“Heidi took incredible care of our dog and gave us updates throughout our vacation. Our dog has a fair amount of anxiety and does not do well in large boarding facilities, he was so happy and fulfilled when we picked him up”
“Carrie was absolutely amazing and Opie had the best time! He enjoyed playing with her dog and running around the big yard and getting his snuggles at night. Would recommend over and over again”
“Rachel is such a nice person and loves dogs. Our dogs run into her house every time we drop them off. We really are blessed that she is in this business and also lives pretty close! THANK YOU!!”
“Shannon was fantastic with our pug Steve! Her communication was excellent and incredibly quick, she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. She gave us peace of mind that Steve was in caring hands. Would recommend Shannon to any other dog parents.”
“Bobbi and her family definitely loved on our Mochi the way she’s loved by us! They treated her like their own family and made sure she really was well taken-cared of. We were felt assured that we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about Mochi. She only takes one dog at a time which is what we looked for so our Mochi had all the attention. And she definitely had! Lol. She sent us pictures and videos of Mochi while we’re gone that made our hearts full. We’ll definitely book her again next time!”
