“I had a great experience! She was kind, professional, and took excellent care of Gerald. She sent regular photo updates and even kept him a bit longer than originally planned, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Christine did a fantastic job of taking care of our Chocolate Lab on our 2-week trip to Italy. She kept us informed regularly of how he was integrating with her pets and kids, and sent us plenty of pictures. The number of “awwws” that we sighed when we saw him running in the yard, playing with the other pets or even just lying down for nighttime were plentiful. She did a great job of putting our minds at ease that we had made the right choice in choosing her! I highly recommend her!”
“Susan made me feel very comfortable leaving Cora with her. You can tell she is a true animal lover! She sent updates and pictures and Cora was well looked after. We’ll use her again!”
“Jacqueline did a wonderful job taking care of my dog. She provided regular updates with photos and videos of his stay. I was pleased to know he was in safe hands and being cared for. Will use Jacqueline’s services again.”
“Caroline provided exceptional care for our dog, Zoey, who suffers from separation anxiety. Zoey and Caroline formed a strong bond, and Zoey felt a sense of belonging and comfort in her presence. Caroline’s nurturing and attentive care ensured that Zoey received the love and security she craved. We highly recommend Caroline.”
“Raydean is so awesome. Great service and took good care of our Thor. Great communication the whole time we was out of town and awesome pictures and video. High recommended. We thank you and appreciate your care for our Thor. Looking forward to our next trip to book again because we know Thor is in great hands once again.”
“They have watched our dog for a while now and have him quite often. He is always so well cared for and honestly depressed when he has to leave 😂 it’s great know he is somewhere he loves and is cared for.”
“Crystal is the first rover sitter that kept both of my 7 month old puppies. I really appreciate the care that she showed towards my babies and would highly recommend and will request her again if she is available 🥰”
“Rodney took such great care of my worrisome Weimaraner, while we were out of town. I am so glad I was able to find such a compassionate and laid back dog lover, who is willing to care for someone else’s pets the way we do in our own homes. I don’t think I would ever feel comfortable leaving my dog with anyone else, after I have met Rod and his pack. Thank you again for EVERYTHING!!!”
“Sara was fantastic! Milo had a great time and came back happy! She gave regular updates, kept him entertained. We will definitely use her again when we are in the area.”
“Alice was our lifesaver! I contacted her very last minute and she made everything she could to fit our baby, Nova, in her busy schedule. Nova had a blast! Made a lot of friends and we were at ease knowing that Alice’s entire backyard was fenced and doggy secured! We definitely recommend Alice 100%!”
“Brooke is Awesome and we are so Blessed to have found her for our Sparky !!!!! We have booked with her 5 times over the past year and the most recent trip Sparky stayed with Brooke for 13 nights. It is so comforting to know Sparky is loved and very well taken care of !!!! We look forward to our daily updates and pictures that Brooke always sends us showing Sparky happy and having fun with Brooke, her husband Ben and their puggles Buddy and Tobi !!!! Sparky has separation anxiety but each time she stays with Brooke, Sparky adapts easier and quicker ?!!! Sparky's first couple stays with Brooke were doggy day care. When we booked Sparky's first overnights, Brooke was so very flexible and kind to agree to stay in our home overnight with Sparky for 2 nights and then transitioned Sparky to her home for the remaining 3 nights to help Sparky ease into staying away from home with her anxiety for the first time. With Brooke's help Sparky is a champ now and each drop off is easier !!!!! We are so Thankful for Brooke and her Family !!!!!!”
“Very responsive to messages! I appreciated the pictures of our dog while they were there and could see how happy Coco was being there! Thank you again! An absolute pleasure and will definitely book again if needed!”
“Oliver seemed very relaxed when we picked him up. This tells me that he had a nice stay and we treated well. I will definitely use Victoria and Rishi again. The photos that I received show him sleeping on one of their arms and he is very picky about who he sleeps on...lol.”
“This was the longest we’ve ever left Jamaica with someone outside of family, and we didn’t have to worry at all. Just like on our shorter trips leading up to this one, she couldn’t wait to see Amber again—she ran right over and barely looked back at us! It’s clear she absolutely loves spending time with Amber, which gives us so much peace of mind. We’ll definitely continue booking with Amber for as long as she’s offering Rover services.”
“Lily had a great time with Olivia. We were away over 2 weeks and could tell that Lily felt safe. We knew she was well cared for. Lily developed an ear infection and Olivia handled the vet and giving Lily her meds which isn’t the easiest thing to do. When picking Lily up she was happy to see me but still ran back to Olivia to say goodbye which is always a good thing. We definitely will have Lily stay with Olivia again!”
“Hayley has watched my puppers before and Iroh always comes back happy and suckered out from playing with her two dogs. He loves it there. Hayley is also so kind, working with me on a new pickup time when my original pickup time proved difficult. Thanks for the flexibility, Hayley!”
“Amazing environment. My dog has lots of room to run around as well as another playful dog so he was always active. Kimberly sent lots of pictures and my dog looked happy in every one of them.”

“Gina did a wonderful job. We could tell when we first met her she was a cat lover. Her reports to us were very detailed. She sent darling pictures of our kitty. We will definitely use Gina again!!!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Kelly and Taylor made the experience so easy. They were kind, trustworthy, and wonderful with our kitties. They were easy to talk to, communicated well, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’d be happy to book with them again in the future!”
“Brooklyn is super sweet and was very communicative which I really appreciate! I’ve never used Rover or any other site to find someone to watch my baby (my elderly cat) so I was pretty anxious, but Brooklyn was great and I will definitely be booking her again if I need someone to watch my baby!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 15 for family and friends. I have watched all types of dogs, large, small, young, and old as well as some cats. I am an active person that enjoys exercise but I also love nature so I can go at whatever speed your dog prefers. I am a graduate student at MSU so I keep a busy schedule, but I will always find time for your pets and treat them as my own! Although I am not certified I have trained my own dogs and can adjust to whatever level of obedience you are looking to attain. I also volunteer at an animal sanctuary so I have experience with all kinds of animals besides just cats and dogs. I would love to be able to assist you with any of the services I can provide for your furry friends! I am a graduate student so I do have classes during the fall and spring term and MSU employs me part-time as a teaching assistant. I do have availability inside and outside the working hours of the day depending on the day of the week during classes. In the summers, I currently work on research for MSU but have flexible scheduling to fit your pet care needs. I am a detail-oriented person and will care for your pets exactly the way you would in your own home. I also will treat your home as if it was my own and clean up after myself and your pets, and make sure your house is safe and secure while you are gone. I will be happy to take care of your pets and make sure they are well-taken care of until you return!
“Wendy was great given that the boys take time to get to know folks. She was able to confirm their whereabouts and at least leave them with food to eat at their leisure. Thanks”

“Hunter did a great job on the first drop-in visit for my elderly, diabetic cat. She was very caring and attentive, and Cane was in perfect shape when I returned home. Hunter sent cute pics and a detailed report. I highly recommend her, and hope she'll be available next time I need a sitter!”

About: I’ve had cats my whole life, and started helping care for them as soon as I was about 12 years old. When my childhood kitty passed in May, I decided to start volunteering at the local animal shelter and I have a lot of experience with the shelter babies! I’m also the designated cat sitter for my friends and family and have lots of experience administering medications (my cat has high blood pressure and kidney disease).

“Jessica did an excellent job looking after my cat while I was gone! She came to my house twice per day to feed my cat, clean her litter, etc. Jessica was thoughtful and gave my cat some new toys for Christmas! While I was gone, Jessica gave me updates each day on how my cat was doing. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs for over 30 years and have provided backup support for a very successful petting sitting service for over 7 years. I’m currently working part-time. I’m a widow with grown children that live on their own. I have a Pomeranian of my own who is 10 years old. I’m available often. I have a small dog of my own to keep your pup company. Your pup will be leashed when walked around my circular HOA community
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have a 12 year old Doberman, a 2 year old pitbull mix, 4 black cats, 2 donkeys, 6 chickens and a parakeet. In the recent past, I worked as a temporary Animal Care Technician at the Ingham County Animal Control which gave me experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and cats with different behaviors. I also learned a lot about giving medications and vaccines, animal enrichment, feeding guidelines and more. I am very interested in dog training so your dogs will get some free training as I am sure I will be practicing any new techniques I learn with my clients! Recently I opened a small dog daycare a mile down the road from my home. Any dog that stays with me will likely get to go down to play with other dogs during the day. If you would like to learn more, just ask! Pet Care is my full time job. I love what I do. Please see my calendar or check with me on my availability for specific dates and times. BOARDING: Any dog I board must get along with my dogs. We will set up a free Meet and Greet at my home before the visit gets booked to make sure it will be a good fit. I have a large fenced in back yard but can also take your dog for daily walks if you prefer. We do also have 2 donkeys that share a fence line with our backyard area. They are used to dogs and have never broken through the fence. I always treat others pets as my own. I interact with them with patience, gentleness and love. I only use positive reinforcement. I am an active person and love to play ball and go for walks or slow jogs, but I also love to cuddle with any furry friends. Pets are family!
“Alice did an amazing job with Oreo! She was so kind, patient and gentle with her. She clearly communicated with me about how her day went and asked questions about her needs. Her utmost priority is safety of the dogs in her care, which also made me feel very comfortable! Thank you so much, Alice :)”
About: Been around dogs since birth. I understand dogs better than I understand people. Trained my dogs to do basic stuff within first couple days of having them and won't have a problem doing the same with yours if wanted. Open to any dates at any time of the day. Currently this is my only job to try to get enough experience to open my own board and train My dogs free roam around the yard. Neither of them step outside the boundaries I have established for them. No shock collars, no invisible fence needed just a firm understanding between my dogs and I
About: I have a love for animals big and small. I enjoy exploring and making new experiences with animals. I have experience with elderly and medical needs animals. I work as a nanny and have sometimes weeks off and would love to have an animal to take care of and take places with me. I have a house with 13 acres, for dogs that are not recall trained I use a 10 ft leash and always make sure leases are on before the door opens. I have a separate room for my own animals that way if rabbits or cats are meet with aggression all animals will be safe.
About: I have offered animal care services for 15 years. My experience includes daycare, medication administration, drop in visits, dog walks, and care for other animals such as cats, chickens, and other farm animals! I have little kids so services I offer require your dog be comfortable around kids, although their direct interaction will be limited. I have 2 dogs at my home. I currently work from home and have open availability. I am typically awake early, and can adjust my schedule around your needs with the exception of my kids bedtime routine :) I have a fenced in yard. I offer a crate if needed for eating or breaks. I offer baby gates if needed. I have many years experience and both of my parents have worked in the animal field for all my life.
“Jason and Kristen have taken such great care of our dog Eddie. He usually has separation anxiety, but always RUNS to their door to be played with and cared for by this family. My requests and quirks are respected, photos are sent and communication response is as close to immediate as one can be. I rest easily knowing my dog is in responsible, caring hands!!”
About: Your dog will be my dog while in my care. I am a huge animal lover who has always made my animals a part of my family, not just an animal. Starting May 4th, I will be training for a new job. My training hours will be 8-5, if you can work around those time please reach out. My yard is not fenced so your babies will only be outside when I am out there with them, leashed if required. I do not agree with leaving a dog alone all night when they are already seeing a difference with their family being gone. If they are dog friendly they would have socialization as well with my friends and family dogs so they could get some interaction and extra exercise! I currently work from home so frequent potty breaks or administration of medication would not be an issue. We would be one big happy family all day long My dogs are not crated when I leave the house but do have an extra large one if required for your baby. If you need me to do a drop in visit, my hours for availability are in the air for the next couple of weeks until I am given my new works hours.
“Victoria & Rishi are incredible. They were responsive, kind, thoughtful about their day report back, and overall lovely folks. Their home was clean and perfectly organized for pup play. They were thoughtful to integrate their own dogs slowly on Winston’s behalf. Overall, I am SO grateful I found them. I completely trust their discretion and never once felt myself worried about leaving Winston in their care. In addition, Winston was so exhausted after daycare, which means he was able to play hard. I cannot recommend these two enough! I will definitely use their services again in the future.”
“We took our mini goldendoodle, Louie, for a daycare day with Kasey. He settled right in after a very warm welcome. I received pics and videos throughout the day. Louie came home exhausted which tells me he had a great play day! We will definitely book again!”
About: Hi! My name is Kylee, and I'm a reliable and experienced pet caregiver with 6+ years of dog handling and training experience, 13 years of cat care experience, and 5 years of caring for guinea pigs and other small animals. I am also CPR and First Aid certified for cats and dogs, and I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency in every visit. I prefer in-home pet care only (at the client's home), as I have my own pets at home, including 5 dogs and 3 cats. My services include drop-in visits, feeding, walks, playtime, litter box and cage cleaning, medication administration, puppy care, and overnight stays. I have experience with large and small dogs, leash training, basic obedience reinforcement, and high-needs care routines. I treat every pet like my own and focus on maintaining their normal routines while owners are away. I am dependable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide attentive, compassionate care so pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own home. My schedule is completely open on the weekends and Wednesdays, and I work part-time Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. But I am available after 4:30 those days. I am only comfortable caring for your animals in their home as I have 5 dogs and 3 cats of my own. All animals are treated as they are my own babies.
About: I’ve owned multiple dogs my whole life, from our current German Shepherd and Siberian Husky to the two pugs we adopted when I was in high school to the lovey dog we found as a kid that we named Scooby-Doo because he looked just like him. I’ve helped care for all of them from walks around the block to feeding time to going outside just for potty and play time. I’ve also helped out a few friends with their dogs since high school while they were away. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a decently open schedule after my kids go to school in the morning and once my husband gets home from work during the week and am available during all hours of the weekend. If you are comfortable with your pets coming to my house I have two very friendly dogs who love play dates if your fur babies play well with others and a big back yard and a fenced in side yard for plenty of running around room or games of fetch. If I’m watching your dog(s) at your home I will follow whatever schedule you have for them on top of making time for play, walks and love so that they don’t feel neglected in any way while you are away. I also am more than comfortable with giving them baths if need be.
“Quinn ran in the door heading straight for the toys Yulia had prepared. He enjoyed himself, went right to sleep as soon as we got home. We will definitely check if Yulia is available if we need day care in Michigan again.”
About: I've had different dogs in the house for my whole life. As a kid my family brought dogs in for foster care. We've taken care of multiple dogs with disabilities, including deaf dogs and partially blind dogs. Dogs get along with me well and I'm good at getting shy dogs to warm up to me. I've also volunteered with the Jackson County Animal Shelter, working with the cats at PetSmart. I've also taken care of relatives'/friends'/neighbors' pets. Currently I spend most of my time at home working on my online classes so I will have plenty of time to spend caring for your dog. On the rare chance that I'm not home at least one of my parents are in the house and will be able to fill in for me while I'm out. The dogs that I own eat at the same time everyday and go out as needed, but if your dogs need to be treated differently it will be easy to change things for them. Just fill me in on what your pet needs to be taken care of properly and I should be able to get it done.
“Rodney was very friendly and approached Scout with patience (he’s a rescue with some past trauma). He clearly is knowledgeable about dogs and cares about them. I would definitely contact Rodney to watch Scout if I’m ever in the area again!”

About: I have taken care of many animals. I was raised on a dairy farm and my family has had dogs my whole life. My family currently has 3 dogs. I am currently working part time in Onondaga so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I enjoy spending my free time with animals. I live on a farm so I have plenty of room for pups to run around. I also have a fenced in area if needed.

About: I was a long time dog owner before my best friend Murphy passed away. Have owned cats even longer. Not ready for a new dog yet myself but would love to help out you and your fur babies! I work M-F 9-6 but with lunch hours I can drop in at a reasonable time during the day typically. Also have a side gig on the weekends but happy to work with you on a schedule we can all agree to! I trained my last dog from a puppy to an adult, with a real calming presence and patience to help. Also familiar with giving medication to cats and dogs alike
About: New to Rover but not new to caring for animals. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. I’m a dependable, structured sitter who understands that pets do best when they feel safe, calm, and cared for—just like at home. As a busy mom managing a full household, I naturally bring consistency, patience, and attention to detail into everything I do—including pet care. I’m especially great with dogs who: • prefer routine • have a little anxiety • need calm, steady energy You can expect: ✔ timely communication ✔ daily photo + message updates ✔ a clean, safe, low-stress environment ✔ someone who treats your pet like family—but with structure I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, and I take that seriously. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’m currently working remotely so I’ll have plenty of companionship for your pet. I walk often myself so I’d be happy to exercise with your pet as well. I have a large yard that is unfenced. I’m open to coming to your home as well. I also have two daughters that are dog lovers that can’t wait to play with and love on your pets!
About: I’m knowledgeable in breed-specific needs and maintain consistency to keep them mentally and physically happy! I have previously taken dog behavior courses and am familiar with dog body language. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and ages! No dog is “too much!” I am comfortable with administering medications and providing grooming for long haired/high maintenance breeds. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs so I am comfortable handling all ages. I have a full-time job but am more than happy to fit time in to take care of your lovely fur baby. My typical shift is 8:00-4:30pm M-F. I have open availability on weekends to provide housesitting! If you are looking for constant care (pet cannot be left alone for 4 hours or more), I am happy to provide that however, I do charge a constant care rate if during the work week as I will need to take those days off and I will need to recoup lost salary. For constant care pets, I do require at least a month’s notice ahead of time so I can get that time off to accommodate. I will never take a sit if my work schedule cannot accommodate it—your pet’s care and safety is extremely important to me. I will work with you to decide if I am the right fit for your pet’s needs and routine. Nothing is worse than upsetting your pet’s routine and comfortability! I now offer drop-visits as well! This is great for people who might need someone to check in your fur baby a couple times a day but does not need around-the-clock needs. I am happy to drop in before work (8am) and can drop by after work! If you’re someone who works longer shifts, this is perfect for you! I am comfortable crating your pet if requested but they are also more than welcome to share a bed with me if they are used to sleeping with you! If you have an unfenced yard, I will keep them on leash at all times. If you have a fenced yard, I will stay out and monitor them until they are ready to come inside. Doors will be locked at all times whether I am in the home with your pet or if I’m at work. If you have any home-alarm systems, I will use them as well.
About: I have a love for animals big and small. I enjoy exploring and making new experiences with animals. I have experience with elderly and medical needs animals. I work as a nanny and have sometimes weeks off and would love to have an animal to take care of and take places with me. I have a house with 13 acres, for dogs that are not recall trained I use a 10 ft leash and always make sure leases are on before the door opens. I have a separate room for my own animals that way if rabbits or cats are meet with aggression all animals will be safe.
About: Walking is my favorite hobby! I’d love to take your pup out with me. I have experience caring for a wide range of pets using Rover since 2021 and off the app prior. My top priority is having a very clear communication on what you need to feel comfortable and worry free while you are away! Having an understanding of what your pup’s routine is very important to me. I would love to meet you and talk through all your pet care needs. Let’s chat. My schedule to walk or to drop in is flexible and I can work with most requests. Please feel free to reach out with your request and we can work together to find a good fit! Your pet is the customer! I am looking forward to working together to make sure your pup gets what they need while you are away from them.
“Owen was fantastic with Murray. He took the time to make sure Murray (and me) was comfortable with him before his walk and even sent pictures during the walk. I would definitely recommend Owen.”
About: I can travel. I have dealt with medications. Great at juggling more than one pet! Attentive!! Responsible. Happy pets! Happy owners! You won’t be disappointed! I am working part time. I’m hoping to make pet care a larger part of my occupation. I’m available more than most people with jobs. I ensure they have a healthy routine. Consistency is important to me for walks and meals. And giving them lots of love! Always being cautious!
About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Ever since I was a kid I would help out friend, family members, and neighbors with their pets. I've had a lot of experience caring for all sorts of animals through means of daily check-in's, going on walks, and overnight stays! I am currently a student at MSU with a somewhat flexible schedule during the week and I am available in mornings on saturday and sundays, I am also available sunday nights. I live with two dogs who would definitely keep your dog some very friendly company, they also love cats as well! I love taking my own dog on walks and there is a nice little park very close to my house that I love to walk my dog to.
About: Absolutely adore animals and would love to get to know yours! I have 4 rescues as well as a service pup, including a disabled rescue from an Afghanistan war zone so I’m more than willing to work with animals with special needs. I have a lot of experience from my own animals and have dog sitting experience as well. I am currently a student and due to the pandemic mostly work online so my availability is pretty open. As I have dogs of my own I would not be able to stay the night with your animal but will have at least 6-7 Hours a day to spend completely with your pup. I would prefer watching the animal at your home as there are 5 other animals here but if needed I am equipped with two area fences in my back yard as well as leads and ability to separate the other dogs in my house without worry.

“I had a great experience! She was kind, professional, and took excellent care of Gerald. She sent regular photo updates and even kept him a bit longer than originally planned, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Christine did a fantastic job of taking care of our Chocolate Lab on our 2-week trip to Italy. She kept us informed regularly of how he was integrating with her pets and kids, and sent us plenty of pictures. The number of “awwws” that we sighed when we saw him running in the yard, playing with the other pets or even just lying down for nighttime were plentiful. She did a great job of putting our minds at ease that we had made the right choice in choosing her! I highly recommend her!”
“Susan made me feel very comfortable leaving Cora with her. You can tell she is a true animal lover! She sent updates and pictures and Cora was well looked after. We’ll use her again!”
“Jacqueline did a wonderful job taking care of my dog. She provided regular updates with photos and videos of his stay. I was pleased to know he was in safe hands and being cared for. Will use Jacqueline’s services again.”
“Raydean is so awesome. Great service and took good care of our Thor. Great communication the whole time we was out of town and awesome pictures and video. High recommended. We thank you and appreciate your care for our Thor. Looking forward to our next trip to book again because we know Thor is in great hands once again.”
“Rodney took such great care of my worrisome Weimaraner, while we were out of town. I am so glad I was able to find such a compassionate and laid back dog lover, who is willing to care for someone else’s pets the way we do in our own homes. I don’t think I would ever feel comfortable leaving my dog with anyone else, after I have met Rod and his pack. Thank you again for EVERYTHING!!!”
“Alice was our lifesaver! I contacted her very last minute and she made everything she could to fit our baby, Nova, in her busy schedule. Nova had a blast! Made a lot of friends and we were at ease knowing that Alice’s entire backyard was fenced and doggy secured! We definitely recommend Alice 100%!”
“Brooke is Awesome and we are so Blessed to have found her for our Sparky !!!!! We have booked with her 5 times over the past year and the most recent trip Sparky stayed with Brooke for 13 nights. It is so comforting to know Sparky is loved and very well taken care of !!!! We look forward to our daily updates and pictures that Brooke always sends us showing Sparky happy and having fun with Brooke, her husband Ben and their puggles Buddy and Tobi !!!! Sparky has separation anxiety but each time she stays with Brooke, Sparky adapts easier and quicker ?!!! Sparky's first couple stays with Brooke were doggy day care. When we booked Sparky's first overnights, Brooke was so very flexible and kind to agree to stay in our home overnight with Sparky for 2 nights and then transitioned Sparky to her home for the remaining 3 nights to help Sparky ease into staying away from home with her anxiety for the first time. With Brooke's help Sparky is a champ now and each drop off is easier !!!!! We are so Thankful for Brooke and her Family !!!!!!”
“Very responsive to messages! I appreciated the pictures of our dog while they were there and could see how happy Coco was being there! Thank you again! An absolute pleasure and will definitely book again if needed!”
“This was the longest we’ve ever left Jamaica with someone outside of family, and we didn’t have to worry at all. Just like on our shorter trips leading up to this one, she couldn’t wait to see Amber again—she ran right over and barely looked back at us! It’s clear she absolutely loves spending time with Amber, which gives us so much peace of mind. We’ll definitely continue booking with Amber for as long as she’s offering Rover services.”
“Lily had a great time with Olivia. We were away over 2 weeks and could tell that Lily felt safe. We knew she was well cared for. Lily developed an ear infection and Olivia handled the vet and giving Lily her meds which isn’t the easiest thing to do. When picking Lily up she was happy to see me but still ran back to Olivia to say goodbye which is always a good thing. We definitely will have Lily stay with Olivia again!”
“Hayley has watched my puppers before and Iroh always comes back happy and suckered out from playing with her two dogs. He loves it there. Hayley is also so kind, working with me on a new pickup time when my original pickup time proved difficult. Thanks for the flexibility, Hayley!”
“Amazing environment. My dog has lots of room to run around as well as another playful dog so he was always active. Kimberly sent lots of pictures and my dog looked happy in every one of them.”
“My dog Cooper was very relaxed and at home with Cheryl. I felt at ease with Cooper in her care with his special dietary needs and separation anxiety. I really appreciated how she accommodated my change in schedule due to unexpected travel delays. Definitely will rebook for future dog boarding.”
“Nimbus had a great time with Chris and his family. I was sent updates with pictures regularly and I’m very grateful he was able to watch her very last minute. Would definitely book again! 👍🏼”
“Mandy was so great with our dog Juni! Juni got sick while we were away and Mandy was super communicative and helped us get information to the vet. It was a really stressful situation but Mandy handled it so well and we can't thank her enough!”
“Sarah took really good care of my Loki. It was his first time having a dog sitter and she ensured I received pictures, videos and updates about everything. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“Kathy was great to work with, took good care of our dog and seemed to really enjoy dogs (has three of her own), ours in particular! Sent us several photos during the boarding. Easy to communicate with.”
