“Dawn took fantastic care of my baby! She came home beautifully tired out from playing with Dawn's own fur babies. Dawn provided informative daily updates that kept my mind completely at ease. I highly recommend her!”
“Danielle and her family were so great with my high energy, high anxiety border collie. She was super communicative in advance and was flexible with my crazy travel hours. When we got to their house to drop Callie off, she immediately took off into their huge, fenced in backyard, and I knew she’d have a great time there. Not only did Danielle and her family play with Callie, but even the neighborhood kiddos came to throw frisbees for her. I know she’d love to go back, and I’m happy to recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a fun time for their pup!”
“Samantha and Zach were super professional and responsive when our puppy was boarded with them. They made sure to send us lots of pictures and videos as updates! Will be bringing him back as he had the best time!”
“This is our dog's third stay and steven is great to work with. easy drop of and Pick up. very flexible with times and there is always a dog there for ours to play with thanks again.”
“Where do I start! From the meet and greet, Amanda made us feel welcomed and answered all of our questions. This was my first time leaving my boy for more than a day so I was super duper nervous. Amanda’s daily communication (2 times a day) really made me feel secure and happy knowing that my boy was safe and having the best time! She’s great and for any future vacations/dog sitting needs… we will 1000% be sprinting to Amanda! Thank you so much! ☺️”
“My 6 year old pitty mix stayed 7 days with Laura and Joe while I was away on vacation. I couldn’t have been more happy with the great loving care they provided for my dog. Laura sent frequent photos and updates daily to let me know my girl was enjoying her stay. Huge fenced yard to run and play ball. And lots of cuddles on the couch. I love that Laura only sits one pet family at a time. I highly recommend Laura and her husband Joe and will definitely contact her again when in need for a sitter for my girl.”
“Monica was a Godsend! She was very flexible with pickup and drop off dates & very accommodating to our changing flight status when we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures & kept us updated throughout our pups stay. She is very kind & patient with our senior dog Lola who had an accident as soon as she got into her home. 10/10, I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Janelle boarded my senior dog for a week and everything went perfect. She is professional, communicative, and has a cozy/clean home that my dog felt so comfortable in. I will book Janelle again and recommend her to anyone!”
“Lindsey is VERY professional. She documented all my dogs belongings as well as distributed his medication. I’ve always been very nervous about leaving my dog with other people because of his needs, but she was very attentive. He seemed very happy with her. She also sent daily updates and pictures. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Carolina was absolutely fantastic! Hazel loved her time there. She was happy and tired (in a great way) when we picked her up. Carolina had excellent communication and took Hazel for a nice walk in the neighborhood, her favorite thing to do. Am definitely using Carolina again!”
“She is amazing!! Other boarders would send us maybe one pic a day. We got a load of pics three times a day. She had everything only thing we had to bring was food and the pup. She understands animals and their behaviors. Would recommend her to EVERYONE!!”
“I highly recommend Adam and will use them again. He is very knowledgeable in dog care and very observant. He had my two dogs personalities pegged perfectly. Loved that I was kept informed with pictures and notes and helped me feel comfortable leaving them. My doggies enjoyed spending time with his super sweet dog too. Will definitely book again.”
“Kadi is amazing and my sweet little old girly girl, Dolly, just loves her. ❤️ Dolly is 13 and doesn’t ever play with dogs but Kadi sent me pictures of Dolly having the best time playing with her dog. It made me so happy! I will definitely be using Kadi for doggy care the next time we travel.”
“Omgoodness I can’t give enough praise for this family, they are very attentive & loving people, I felt comfortable immediately at the meet & greet & was so happy I chose them to care for my puppy Ace for an entire week, they provided me with text & picture updates daily. Ace was exhausted when we picked him up from all the fun he had. I would highly recommend them every time! Looking forward to using them again”
“Rachael is a sweetheart and clearly has a huge heart for doggies 🐕 ♥️ I felt comfortable leaving my baby girl as I left town. She sent videos and pictures while I was away. I recommend Rachael for boarding care!!”
“Tory was fantastic! This was the first time dropping Primo off with a stranger and he was as nervous as I was during the drop lol. Tory sent many pics and I could tell his mood got more and more playful the longer he stayed there. I liked seeing him playing tag with other dogs. Towards the end Tory informed me that I miscalculated his food and he didn't have enough for his last day. Thankfully she let me know with enough time, so I could end our Michigan camping trip a little early and rush over to get him. Her house was also very clean and organized, which helped put me at ease, as primo likes to get into rubbish If it's everywhere. I'm now considering Tory for our next trip, instead of relying on my friends and coworkers. It was worth every penny.”

“Samantha takes such good care of our shy cats! She does whatever it takes to get them to take their blood pressure medicine, including reaching under the bed with a treat. We love getting photos and updates to know our pets are in good hands. Highly recommend Samantha!”
“Chelsey stayed at my house overnight and watched my 2 cats for 7 days. She did a great job, I know my cats and house were well cared for while I was gone. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the week as well. House was very clean when I returned, I barely even knew she had been there! Would absolutely hire again.”
“Mackenzie was amazing!! My kitty Cleo loves her!! She made sure everything was clean and Cleo was entertained the whole time she was there. I also really wanted to add the fact that my cat loves cat TV and McKenzie made sure that my cat got it every day when she visited! One more thing, she took amazing pictures of my cat.”
“Caitlin was great with my two cats! I came home to two happy boys. I felt comfortable and confident having her take care of them. I will definitely be asking her to watch my boys again!”
“Book her now because Chamira is wonderful. We asked for 2x daily drop ins over a week to mange 3 cats and each visit was perfect. She sent us pics and notes with every visit.. more like a little story about each of our cats. She gave our diabetic cat his injection twice a day, made sure our littlest one got time at the faucet that she loves to drink out of and even left us some cute printed photos of our crew. Chamira is smart, polite and uses gentle techniques to help your animals get comfortable with someone new in their house. Wrangling cats is impossible but Chamira has it down.”
“Sarah is so kind! My cat trusted her from the start. She is reliable and great at what she does. My vacation wouldn't have been nearly as enjoyable if it weren't for knowing she was giving my little fur baby the love and attention she needed.”
About: 🌞 I am always smiling brightly every time I have the opportunity to be with an animal. (I have many photos of this to share!) I love all types of these precious beings! 💗 Some of my life experiences include: Parenting Dogs, Cats, Kittens, Lizards, and Senior Pets. I have assisted in kitten birth and successfully bonded with, and adopted a feral kitten who (still) adores me... Yay! 😁 I have also cared for a very sick lizard and kitten by myself that required extensive care for a few long months. 🐿️ 🐴 All types of animals seem to be attracted to me, including... dogs, cats, ferrets, horses, donkeys, goats, possums, squirrels, etc. I love the saying, "If animals are drawn to you, it's not random. They can sense good energy and are naturally drawn to calm and safe vibes." 🐐 🐑 🐕 I have been a volunteer at the Michigan Humane Society and I am also a medical professional (for humans). 🐈 💊 *Disclaimer: My '30' years of experience is personal. 💉 📆 My typical availability might be something like: M-Th evenings 6-9pm (I usually work my primary job M-TH 7am-5:30pm and almost NEVER available during these hours.) - *After those hours, FEEL FREE TO ASK IF NOT OPEN ON CALANDER* (I may arrive in medical scrubs), Friday afternoon 10am-3pm *FEEL FREE TO ASK IF NOT OPEN ON CALANDER* and most Saturdays / Sundays.✨ Sometimes I am more available and sometimes less... This schedule is not always definite but I will keep my calendar availability posted and up to date. *ALWAYS FEEL FREE TO ASK IF NOT OPEN ON CALANDER. I 'MAY' BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE* 📆 🏠 House sitting can also 'sometimes' be booked with notice if marked 'Unavailable' in my calendar. Feel free to ask. 🏠 ⚕️ Since I am attempting to transition from human care to animal care, I still work full time (plus) in the Human Healthcare field and my work schedule varies. (I am certified in human CPR and hopefully animal CPR to come...)⚕️ 🐈⬛ I have always had a strong desire to work with animals and I am hoping to finally transition from human care to animal care but I prefer to interact with animals and enjoy what they bring to the world, rather than do restraining and invasive procedures on them. 🐶 I am pretty intuitive about what makes an animal happy (and not) and I would make their time with me as awesome as I possibly can! Additionally, I would happily engage farm animals, birds, and others to my full ability!
“Second time booking Desiree to watch my cats, Tony and Panini. Excellent care as always. I greatly appreciated her sending daily pictures of my kids and brushing their teeth everyday.”
“Olivia is a very sweet person I was lucky enough to have take care of my precious cat Luna. She made sure she was well aware of her needs and went beyond her responsibilities by trying to just be a friend to Luna while I was away. I would recommend Olivia to anyone. 10 out of 10”
About: Hello, my name is Terry and I am currently working towards a biology degree for pre- veterinary medicine. Feel free to reach out and we can discuss how I can help! Hi, thank you for your interest, my schedule is subject to change. Contact me for my updated schedule. I may be occupied with pre made plans depending on the day. I have a fensed in backyard. I do not have any pets living in the house. There is a 11 year old girl that would keep your pet company under supervision.
“Lindsey was great with my 3 cats one of them needing nightly meds. She communicated with me every visit and she took our trash out wacummed before we got home.”
“Genie was/is amazing, she came by twice a day to give my Kiki insulin injections, kept her company, even tried to accommodate my scaredy cat RALPH who is terrified of everyone under the sun. A++++ top tier pet sitter highly recommended in every regard.”
About: I’m a dog daycare attendant as my day job and I’m a MSU Vet Tech student who’s on a gap year and looking to work with animals in the meantime! Animals are my passion and I strive to give them the best care daily :) I work as a dog daycare attendant during the evenings but I’m open anytime before noon for walks or playtime. Knowing kids are going back to school soon and parents will be working, I hope to help out with the morning chaos :) As someone looking to go into the veterinary field your pets care is my utmost priority. I consistently try my best to be as attentive as I can to the animals I work with to prevent any possible incidents from occurring. I understand your pet is part of your family and I wouldn’t treat them as any less :)
“Zoe was absolutely amazing! She spent so much time with my little fur babies and always provides many many photos! It helped me know that they were under good care and well taken care of. I will definitely be rebooking for future pet sitting needs.”
“I was nervous about letting a stranger in the house. I chose Alayna after reading her long history caring for animals and the stellar reviews. She was so wonderful! I know my cat felt safe and cared for. She usually doesn't come out when new people come over, but in all the pictures she was downstairs playing with Alayna. I felt great about the experience and I will definitely use her again. She's very sweet, also.”
“Adam always does a wonderful job with my 2 cats. I have used him several times and he goes above and beyond. Definitely an animal lover! Thanks for your help and love of animals!”
“Jo came to my rescue when last sitter needed to cancel for unforeseeable event. She agreed to a late meet and greet before the starting day. She was so patient with me explaining care detail of a new puppy. She stays longer every time, even helps me train my puppy. There is always very detailed feedback after each session, also gave me a in person evaluation session after a week of caring for my new puppy. I highly recommend Jo to pet parents with busy schedule or need help with your furry baby.”
About: I’ve cared for different kinds of dogs on a regular basis and for short periods of times as well. I can also check in on cats as well and feed them and make sure they’re okay. I work for the schools and I am currently on summer break right now so my schedule is extremely flexible. I have my own dog I care for as well but will definitely have the time to check in on your fur babies as well. I always check my backyard for critters before letting my dog out, especially at night. I personally get skunks in my area frequently and it’s a must. My dog has a doggy door and loves outside time but I always know where he is. I feed him and make sure he’s always comfortable. This is the same kind of care I would provide for your fur babies.

“Amanda has been awesome for my sweet doggy Shiloh! She’s so flexible with scheduling which I absolutely love, updates with pictures daily of your fur baby playing or enjoying a walk! My Shiloh girl is very energetic and comes home at the end of the day EXHAUSTED from playing all day which was never the case before day care. We’re thankful for Amanda!”
“Sara and her boyfriend did an amazing job hosting and taking off Thor! Sara sent videos and photos of Milo and Thor having fun! Her home was very pet friendly and safe with a fenced yard. Thor hopes to see Milo again! ?”
About: I had my first pet at 15. Boxer girl named Lady. I loved her dearly. Since then I owned 2 cats , 2 dogs and 2 chinchillas. I’ve always felt lots of love for animals. I work part time. Usually until 11.30-12 pm 4 days/ week. So I have plenty of time to take care of pets in my care. I have a fenced yard. Pets are safe in my backyard to run and play. I take them in daily walks as I enjoy walking .
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life since my parents always had dogs while I was growing up. Caring for pets has always been a natural part of my daily routine. I recently moved to Michigan for a remote job, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention, exercise, playtime, and care they deserve. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m also happy to care for both dogs and cats and will always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for your pet. Because I’m home most of the time, your pet will receive plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and can accommodate most schedules with advance notice. I live in a clean, newly renovated, and well-furnished apartment that provides a safe and comfortable environment for pets. Since I work remotely, I can supervise them throughout the day and make sure they always have fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat them with the same care and love as if they were my own. If you’d like, I’m also happy to send photos of my apartment so you can feel confident about where your pet will be staying.
“Samantha was incredibly kind to take care of Sasha on such short notice. She is trustworthy and reliable and treats Sasha as if she were part of her own family. We have never seen our girl so relaxed and happy in anyone else’s home before! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in Sam’ s care. We highly recommend Sam, and will be happy to return!”
“Tara is great! She is super attentive and communicative, which means so much to me as an anxious pet parent. I knew Marlon was in good care even though he might be nervous. She took her time with him and did all she could to help him feel at home.”
“We have used Tracey for drop in visits for my cats and for doggy day care now for our 3 dogs. You can see how knowledgeable she is about dogs and we appreciate her being available for us when needed. She will definitely be our go to person.”
About: We adopted a dog 9 years ago and she was one the best things that had ever happened to us, she was our fur baby and we took her to our trips (she was a frequent flyer). She recently crossed the rainbow bridge at 17 and even though we are not ready to adopt another dog, we would absolutely love to take care of your dog. Our daughter loves dogs and it would make her really happy to have a dog in our home at least for a few days. We would take care of your dog as it was our own, we've taken care of a friend's dog and we loved every minute of it. Having a 17 year old dog we have extensive experience with senior dogs and special needs (our dog had a spinal operation and lived three years after it). I work from home four days a week and have flexibility as to when I can go in. My wife and daughter are at school and work five days a week. We have a large fenced yard and do not currently have any pets. We live in a ranch so we only have one step and a door that shuts off access to the basement if you're worried about your pet using steps. We will treat your dog as if it's our own and it is allowed on the furniture if you're okay with it.
“Carolina was wonderful! She is so kind. Carolina allowed Murphy and us to meet prior to our first sitting day...Murphy was able check out her house/sniff around, which made us feel more comfortable dropping him off! We were able to meet her family as well which put us completely at ease-such wonderful kids! On Murphy's first day with Carolina, she sent pics and updates of our fur-baby settling in and comfortable at her home!! When I picked him up at the end of his day, I could tell he was happy and well cared for. We will be bringing Murphy back!! We are so happy we found Carolina! She is truly lovely and so good to our 'baby'.”
About: Hi there! I have 4 years of experience caring for my own sweet Maltipoo, plus two senior Chihuahuas (13 and 9 years old) in my family. I’m confident working with dogs of all ages and temperaments—whether they’re energetic or need extra patience. I provide loving, attentive care and treat every dog like family💛. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities! I work full-time on Rover, so I’m very responsive and usually reply within 5 minutes❣️.

Your dog will be treated like family, with all the attention and care they deserve.

“Olivia did great caring for my Shitzus Lilly and Toya. I appreciate her punctuality, and attention to detail. I was relieved my precious pups were taken care of while I was away.”
About: Certified in Pet First Aid/CPR and training, I bring 6 years of experience working with diverse dog breeds, ages, and temperaments, ranging from shy to reactive/aggressive. With a lifelong passion for dogs, I excel in building bonds and fostering confidence. I also have some experience in cat sitting. I work full-time now, but I truly miss dog training and spending time working with dogs. On my days off, I’d love to dedicate my time to helping you and caring for your pets when you need it most. Providing reliable, attentive, and loving care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet like my own. For dog sitting, I prioritize maintaining your dog's routine in their familiar environment. I prefer meeting you and your dog beforehand to understand your expectations and their daily schedule. I enjoy enriching their lives with walks and engaging activities, including training games, tricks, and enrichment puzzles. Your dog's well-being and happiness are my top priorities, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while you're away.
“Samantha has been awesome with our puppy!!! Her communication is wonderful and she is always prompt. She gives extra TLC and Keira just loves her. We feel fortunate to have found her and we are very comfortable leaving our puppy in her care.”
“I love Mackenzie she is so gentle and patient with my rescue border collie. She’s very reliable punctual and friendly. I have rebooked her time and time again and will continue to do so.”
About: Hi! I’m Samantha, a pet handler supervisor with professional experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Working in a pet resort has given me hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. What sets me apart is my professional background. I’m comfortable reading animal body language, recognizing signs of stress or illness, administering basic medications if needed, and caring for multiple pets with different needs. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a walk, playtime, or companionship while you’re away, you can feel confident they’re in experienced hands. I believe communication is important, so you can expect updates and photos during every visit. My goal is for you to have peace of mind and for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾❤️ I have daytime availability and love being able to spend that time caring for animals. My schedule allows me to provide reliable visits, walks, playtime, and check-ins while keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Working as a pet handler supervisor has given me the experience to confidently care for pets with different personalities and needs. ❤️ I provide care in my clients’ homes through reliable check-ins and walks that help keep pets comfortable in their own familiar environment. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding instructions, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and any specific care preferences you provide. During visits, I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I’ll take the time to build trust, respect each pet’s personality, and provide updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. 🐾 With my experience as a pet handler supervisor, I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand how important patience and attention to detail are.
“Desiree is great with my big energetic dog!!! She is very friendly and great to work with. On time, positive, and sends updates with pictures and videos. She goes above and beyond which is what we all want for our pets. Highly recommend!”
“Abbey has been great with our dog. She gives her plenty of attention and is attentive to her needs. Our needs waver and she is always flexible within her capacity. She’s been a great addition to Pippin’s care team.”
“From the first minute I spoke to Zoe, I knew that I had hired a great person to watch Flex and take him for a walk. She came over the night before and did a meet-and-greet. Flex had other ideas, but she communicated with me, which put me at ease. I highly recommend Zoe.”
About: I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life and have always loved caring for them. One of our family dogs had a litter of puppies, and because she became sick, we had to step in and essentially mother the puppies ourselves, providing around-the-clock care, feeding, and attention. It was a lot of responsibility, but also such a rewarding experience and taught me how important patience, consistency, and attentiveness are when caring for animals. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m always happy to follow their normal routine and give them plenty of love and attention while you’re away. Since I’m currently working on my master’s degree, my schedule is pretty flexible and gives me plenty of time to care for your pets throughout the week. I also work at Painting with a Twist on weekends, but have flexibility there as well. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make time for walks, playtime, check-ins, and plenty of attention and cuddles! 🐾 I want your pet to feel as comfortable with me as they do with you. I’ll follow their usual routine and any instructions you leave, whether that’s walks, meals, or playtime. I’ll give them plenty of attention while also respecting their personality and space, and I’m always happy to send pictures and updates so you know they’re doing well. 🐾
About: We love dogs and promise to take care of yours as if he or she was part of our family. We are happy to follow any specific instructions you may have and will do our best to provide a happy, healthy environment for your furry family member while you’re away. We are both recently retired and don’t currently have any pets so we can give yours all the attention he or she needs. We are happy to send photos and/or videos while you’re away if you like! We will make sure your dog(s) get lots of exercise, love and attention! We are retired and are available everyday - weekdays, weekends, holidays - you name it! We are completely flexible and able to work with your schedule. We can even pick up and/or drop off your fur baby if it’s more convenient for you. Just ask us - we are more than happy to help! And while our profile says that we only take ONE dog at a time, we are happy to take two or three AS LONG AS THEY ARE FROM THE SAME FAMILY. We strongly believe in making your dog’s (or dogs’) experience as close to what you provide at home. That’s why we don’t have any other animals of our own and we won’t care for multiple dogs from outside your own family. It’s safer for your dog(s) and there is much less anxiety for them when they aren’t faced with unknown dogs. We endeavor to make your dog(s) feel as comfortable and calm as possible during their stay with us. Safety first! Our entire home has been recently remodeled and is very dog friendly. We keep chemicals out of sight and behind closed doors. Our yard is fenced in and there is a lot of space to run and play. Joe is “dog-walker extraordinaire” and loves to take long or short walks any time of day.
About: As the warmer weather is approaching us, and alot of people are traveling to out of state or even out of the country, I know its very hard to leave your pet with someone or even a big boarding company while you go on vacation. Or even not liking to put your dog through staying in a cage while on an airplane. So I would love to cuddle and give all your pets the affection they need while you're out of town. With you leaving your pet with me, they will get lovings all day every day they’re with me. They will get play time, feeding time, relaxing time, cuddling time, and even walking time! (Swimming time if you allow it) I currently have one dog. Most people are afraid of bigger dogs, but mine is just a big baby, shed like little a little kid most of the time she just sleeps. I also have a kitten that acts just like a dog and then have 3 older cats. They Just want lovings and cuddles. They go out potty every 1-2 hours, because there bladder is a lot smaller than ours. If it’s really nice outside I’ll go in the back yard and play fetch and just run around with them for hours or as long as they want to stay outside. At night she doesn't sleep in a cage, because shes very well trained and don’t potty in the house, but she does sleep with me in my room. I love taking care of any type of animal, because if you can’t help them, who’s going to? They can’t help themself, so you have to help them. When I go to friends houses or even family members houses, I’m the person sitting in the corner with either the dogs laying on my feet and I’m rubbing there belly, or with the cats on my lap as I’m petting them. Animals love me, just as much as I love them. I'm currently a stay at home mom, I'm home pretty much 24/7 and have all the time in the world to play, cuddle, walk, and just lounge around in the house with your pet. I have a fenced in yard, and one dog and a few cats that will keep your family company while you're away. If they need to be crated per your request I can do that as well.

“Where do I start! From the meet and greet, Amanda made us feel welcomed and answered all of our questions. This was my first time leaving my boy for more than a day so I was super duper nervous. Amanda’s daily communication (2 times a day) really made me feel secure and happy knowing that my boy was safe and having the best time! She’s great and for any future vacations/dog sitting needs… we will 1000% be sprinting to Amanda! Thank you so much! ☺️”
“My 6 year old pitty mix stayed 7 days with Laura and Joe while I was away on vacation. I couldn’t have been more happy with the great loving care they provided for my dog. Laura sent frequent photos and updates daily to let me know my girl was enjoying her stay. Huge fenced yard to run and play ball. And lots of cuddles on the couch. I love that Laura only sits one pet family at a time. I highly recommend Laura and her husband Joe and will definitely contact her again when in need for a sitter for my girl.”
“Monica was a Godsend! She was very flexible with pickup and drop off dates & very accommodating to our changing flight status when we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures & kept us updated throughout our pups stay. She is very kind & patient with our senior dog Lola who had an accident as soon as she got into her home. 10/10, I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Janelle boarded my senior dog for a week and everything went perfect. She is professional, communicative, and has a cozy/clean home that my dog felt so comfortable in. I will book Janelle again and recommend her to anyone!”
“Lindsey is VERY professional. She documented all my dogs belongings as well as distributed his medication. I’ve always been very nervous about leaving my dog with other people because of his needs, but she was very attentive. He seemed very happy with her. She also sent daily updates and pictures. I would definitely book with her again.”
“She is amazing!! Other boarders would send us maybe one pic a day. We got a load of pics three times a day. She had everything only thing we had to bring was food and the pup. She understands animals and their behaviors. Would recommend her to EVERYONE!!”
“I highly recommend Adam and will use them again. He is very knowledgeable in dog care and very observant. He had my two dogs personalities pegged perfectly. Loved that I was kept informed with pictures and notes and helped me feel comfortable leaving them. My doggies enjoyed spending time with his super sweet dog too. Will definitely book again.”
“Omgoodness I can’t give enough praise for this family, they are very attentive & loving people, I felt comfortable immediately at the meet & greet & was so happy I chose them to care for my puppy Ace for an entire week, they provided me with text & picture updates daily. Ace was exhausted when we picked him up from all the fun he had. I would highly recommend them every time! Looking forward to using them again”

“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Leaving my dog for a week while I was on vacation was a little nerve-wracking, but Cody immediately put me at ease. From our first interaction, it was clear that he is very experienced with dogs and genuinely enjoys caring for them. I have a high-energy Border Collie/Aussie mix, and he handled him wonderfully. He got plenty of attention, exercise, and care, and I could tell he was comfortable and happy during his stay. I also really appreciated was the regular updates and photos he sent throughout the week. It was so reassuring to see how he was doing and know he was in good hands. I would absolutely trust him with my dog again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter.”
“Absolutely excellent. Whitley is very accommodating and easy to work with, and Pax felt right at home (I know this in part from the photo and video updates she sent, which were kind of next level!) Pax came away smiling.”
“Words can not express the gratitude we have for the care that Ms Latara has provided for our 3 pups. At the moment of our first meet Ms Latara was very welcoming, polite and professional which calmed my anxieties. The daily updates, pictures and videos provided were comforting as well. It brought joy to me to see that they were having so much fun. I will definitely seek Ms Latara to provide future boarding needs. Ms. Latara YOU ARE AWESOME!!! Here are 10 more stars for you ❣️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Kate is amazing! I am always a little anxious about leaving Downey with other people, but Kate made sure he had the best time. She is attentive and patient and answers quickly. She followed all the instructions well and sent videos and photos every day. Her availability and flexibility to take care of Downey for us again during the Holidays saved our lives after weeks of looking for an available and affordable sitter. As long as Kate is available, I'll not look for another sitter again. I 100% recommend her!!”
