“Dana cared for my dog like she was her own while I was away, which meant everything to me. I truly appreciated the level of attention and love she provided - it gave me complete peace of mind knowing my dog was in such good hands. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages, and it was so reassuring to see my dog happily playing ball in the backyard and curled up on the couch.”

“This was our first experience with Rover. Our dog just turned one and we had boarded her at a commercial facility and a home atmosphere appealed to us as an alternative so we tried it out. Alyssa and Spencer are fantastic. We met with them beforehand just to ease our concerns and the weekend went so well that we rebooked for two more trips this summer. We highly recommend them!”

“Tawni took very good care of our Daisy and kept in touch throughout her stay. I felt comfortable and confident that our Daisy was in good hands and appreciative Tawni being available each time I reached out to her”


“Cheryl is the best! Our pup is so happy there. She keeps us updated while we are away but his excitement when he arrives at her house is the tell tale sign of his happiness.”

“Peggy took amazingly great care of Amigo. Gave him special treats like a yogurt board and other puzzles. He loved many playful mornings in her great back yard with Peggy’s dog, Barklee! Her true love of dogs is apparent! Can’t think of enough great things to say! Book her with complete confidence!”

“We were extremely pleased with Monica taking care of Walter. She did a wonderful job, and had no concerns the whole time we were gone. I would definately recommend her and would use her in the future.”


“Judith took amazing care of our Lava! We have now trusted Judith with our pup twice (once for a week when we were on vacation). If you are looking for a place that your pup can enjoy plenty of fenced in outdoor space with shade, other friendly dogs to play with, and caring caretakers—look no further!”

“From the moment I booked with this sitter and had our initial video chat, I instantly felt good vibes and positive energy. She has a dog of her own, and it was clear that Chloe got along with her wonderfully. Throughout the stay, the sitter kept me updated with photos and messages, which I truly appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing Chloe was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Linda was great! Bear stayed with her over the holiday and had a great time. He came home happy, I got lots of communication and photos throughout the week, and he had a friend to play with!”
“Haley, took such good care of Eddie! Even let him eat where he was comfortable. Lol spoiling and lots of cuddles is an understatement. For our first time it was seamless and I wouldn't hesitate to have her watch him again.”

“Gabriella did great with my dog! She noticed he wasn't eating all his dog food and asked if she could supplement it with some dog-friendly broth. He loved it so much, he would eat his food in a minute or two. I am grateful to her for taking such great care of him!!”

“This was our second booking with Jeannette. This time, it was for 2 weeks. We had many reservations about taking a 2 week vacation out of the country without our puppy Archie, but Jeannette made us feel at ease. She was in regular contact & sent us daily updates which allowed us some comfort in knowing Archie was in great care. We've been home now for a couple days & Archie did not skip a beat.. he maintains his regular routines & schedule. Thank you so much Jeannette!!”

“Hunter takes great care of our Roxie! She always comes home very happy. Hunter is reliable and keeps us updated. We also love the adorable pictures she sends of our girl.”

“We were in a pinch for a dog sitter and were so lucky to have found Kayla and her family. Our 10 month old lab is a hand full and they were wonderful with him. We had pictures and updates every day and didn't worry about him for a moment. We feel like Riley now has a second family to go to instead of boarding. We are truly grateful!”

“Christal was quick to respond and very communicative while my pup was with her family! Lots of love and cuddles were given and my pup came home tired and happy! I hope we can board with Christal again!”

“Cody is super communicative! He kept us updated on the pups and sent tons of pictures. We felt super comfortable having him watch our dogs and would definitely use him again!”

“Hannah is the best! This was my first time using a Rover and my puppy is only a year old so I was extra nervous about using a service for the first time, but I’m so happy I did because we found Hannah! My puppy was so well taken care of and I got regular updates and photos from Hannah which made me so happy and feel more at ease. I’ve already rebooked her to take care of my little girl again! Thank you, Hannah! 😊”

“Bozena was a great sitter for the time she had Nemo with the inclusion of constant photo updates. Bozena welcomed us into her home where Nemo was going to have plenty of company with the kids being around. The fact that Bozena was able to take care of some other dogs while Nemo was there also added to his stay. Nemo also seemed to have a great time in her yard prancing around as he wished. He exerted so much energy during his stay that once we got home he slept the whole afternoon. She may be a bit far out to some folks, but I definitely recommend Bozena if available.”

“Stephanie was great! She was very accommodating to the quick request for Sailor to stay. Sailor had a great time playing with her dog Nico and is going to sleep hard after the stay. Stephanie also sent several updates on how he was doing with photos included.”

“Jennifer exceeded all our expectations. She is detail oriented, reliable and best of all, our timid cat loves her. She is generous with her time and attentive - you can tell she really loves animals and the task at hand, she doesn't rush. Communications and photos are plentiful and detailed. We will definitely use her again.”


“Very nice rover, kitties were very comfortable with her. She was always on time and communicative, took great care of our babies and sent lots of pictures which we appreciated! I would recommend and book again!”


“We've had Joann take care of our pets several times now. She feels like family at this point! We're so happy to have her care for our pets! She does a great job and with such care!”

“Jordan is awesome!! She takes such great care of our kitties. She follows instructions to a t, is very communicative, and goes above and beyond making sure we are returning to a tidy house and happy cats. We will gladly continue working with Jordan.”

“We are SO appreciative of Max! He is quick to communicate and sends great updates. We recently went out of the country and I was pretty nervous about our cats — knowing Max was taking care of them really eased my mind (he handled cat house accidents, mail, and some other random/special pet requests which I so appreciated). We’ll continue to book him as much as he’s available! Thanks, Max!”


“Elizabeth is so great with Miss Rosemary always! My sweet girl enjoys the drop in visits. I feel so at ease knowing Elizabeth will be checking on her making sure all is well when I am away!”


“Sarah was the perfect drop in cat sitter! She communicates very well and easily understood all provided instructions and did an amazing job! Will definitely be using her services in the future!”


“I procrastinated and needed a last minute a pet sitter for my cat during the holidays. Annemarie was really accommodating to my needs on such a short notice, willing to even do a meet and greet on the day of booking since I had to leave the next day. Overall, Annemarie is a wonderful and trustworthy person who will send update pictures and videos of your four-legged best friend while following the notes you left to a T. Definitely recommend.”

“Minh always does amazing!! She’s watched our pack time and time again and each time goes the extra mile to make sure they’re taken care of!! Thank you so much!!”


“Kelsey was outstanding with catsitting. Dropped in on time, communicated well and took lots of lovely pictures. She was a huge help and would definitely recommend!”


About: I have been taking care of cats since I was born. Friends and family have all relied on me to take care of their furry babies. I am also a current volunteer for the No-Kill Cat Collective program which rehomes cats with happy and loving families.
About: Friends and family have trusted me with their pets for years, and I’m often the first person they call when they need someone dependable. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s personality, and I love building relationships with them over time. I previously cared for a blind Cocker Spaniel with a very strong personality and learned a lot about patience, routine, and helping senior pets feel safe and comfortable. Because of that experience, I’m especially attentive to animals who need a little extra understanding or prefer things done their own way. Whether your pet is outgoing, anxious, goofy, or gloriously stubborn, I’ll meet them where they are and make sure they feel loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate overnight stays, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, and plenty of quality time with your pets. I enjoy having animals as part of my day and make their comfort and routine a priority while you’re away. I provide care exclusively in the client’s home, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible: feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and lots of companionship. I also treat the home with care and respect, and keep you updated so you can relax while you’re away knowing everything is in good hands.
“Michaela is one of the best Rover’s I have ever had. She is so genuine, responsive, attentive, understanding, etc!!!! I have unfortunately had to cancel last minute and she never seems upset or bothered by the circumstances. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Michaela for being so sweet to our fur babies!!!”


“Chelsea was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time using her services and we were very pleased. She kept us updated at every visit. It's always hard to leave your pets but it makes it so much better when you have someone that you can trust to look after them for a few days. We will be using Chelsea again for sure!”

“Oive's first time daycare with Dana and we both give two thumbs up! Dana and her sweet Bailey were a pleasure to meet, and I knew right away that I was leaving my girl in good caring hands. Pictures and updates and more pictures and updates were very much appreciated. Thank you Dana, Olive is looking forward to her next visit!”

“Georgia has been enjoying spending two days a week at Alyssa and Spencer’s while her mom works. Alyssa and Spencer are great with Georgia and make her feel right at home from the moment she gets inside. We are so grateful to have found this wonderful alternative to larger doggy day cares for Georgia. Georgia doesn’t give too many details on all that she does while she is at Alyssa and Spencer’s, but on the mornings we go to their house, she can’t wait to get in the car and get there.”

About: I raised my Shih Tzu from 3 months up until I lost him to kidney disease on 9/11/2024. I walked him on a regular basis except rainy days (he hated getting wet lol), he was potty trained and free to roam the house while I was not home. Everyone ( family, friends, neighbors) knew how much I loved and cared for him. When he was in his last days from kidney failure, I stayed by his side until the end. I kept his routine the same. I pushed him in his stroller when he could not walk anymore. Administered him an IV daily to keep him hydrated when he barely ate and drank. I laid with him and held him until he let me know it was time for him to go to that Rainbow Bridge. As a newly retired person, I have plenty of time to give your furry friend(s) all the love, walks, and attention they need and deserve. Whether in my home or a clients, I provide a comfortable environment with meals, walks, playtime and companionship. I follow their routines as instructed to keep them happy and comfortable.
“Peggy was great with my baby girl! She made sure my pup had lots of plays throughout the day, and sent me pictures and updates. She was able to accommodate our booking request such short notice, which really helped us out. Peggy’s home was welcoming and had lots of space for my pup to run around with her pups. I would recommend Peggy if you’re in need of daycare!”

About: Hello, Rover world! My name is Gerardo, and I am the proud human to Elle and Tayter Dot. I am here to find fun playmates for my girls by hosting your pets. Please note that I will not host any dogs we have not previously met, for the safety of all involved. Since I'm already a dog parent, I'm already doing the dog routine - feeding, walking, petting, etc. Adding your pup to the routine will be pretty natural as a result. Hubs and I work from home, so we are actively spending time with your dog no matter what! We ask that your pet be housebroken. If they have a crate, we can add that to our routine, though our girls have full reign of the house. (It's their house, I just live in it.) Your pet can expect fresh water, a clean home, a yard to run in, and lots of treats. (Maybe also a weird dog voice...sorry not sorry!) I do my best to walk the girls more than once a day. We are regulars at various trails and greenways, as well as hanging with other friends and their dogs. My spouse and I are attentive to the needs of our girls, and will treat your dog like one of our own. You can expect your dog to be loved on, with lots of fetch in the yard, snuggles on the couch, and homemade treats for all.
“Flo and Kyle are the sweetest. They took great care of my puppy Bentley. Their dog Sperry is just the sweetest as well. Bentley loves playing with her and snuggling with Flo and Kyle. Will definitely recommend booking them.”

“Olga was wonderful! Her sweet little girl got along great with my small dogs. She was very attentive and provided regular pupdates. My dogs loved staying with her and we will definitely be using her again very soon!”


About: Hi! My name is Kortney and I would love to care for your loved ones. I love animals of all types. I’ve had two dogs and a fish in the past, and now I have the world’s most gentle cat! I) I am available for house sitting, walks and play time, potty breaks, meal times, baths, and general companionship during the day/night (they get lonely too!). I don’t have a breed preference, all friendly animals are welcome. I don’t have an age preference either, although I do have a soft spot for old pups. My partner is also on Rover and we often work together. Smoke-free household. I’m very flexible! I am currently working part time during the week and I’m off on weekends so I’ll have tons of time to take great care of your fur babies! I make sure that I don’t pet sit animals with opposing temperaments at the same time. I’m very in tune with cues that they give off. I can also crate your dog if needed.
“My puppy had the best time with Jane and her dogs! They played so much and it’s exactly what he needed!! Jane was really communicative and trustworthy throughout the whole process! Thank you so much for taking care of my baby Cosmo, Jane!”


About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who has grown up with dogs and truly can’t imagine life without them. Dogs have always been a big part of my family, and they honestly come second only to my son in my heart. I’m currently the proud dog mom of two sweet pups, a Maltipoo and a Cairn Terrier mix, who love meeting new dog friends and having playtime. Because I’m already used to the daily routine of walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of cuddles, caring for dogs comes very naturally to me. I offer a safe, loving environment where your dog will be treated like part of the family. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some company during the day, or a cozy place to stay, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your dog is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work remotely from home, which allows me to be present with the dogs throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to take regular walk breaks, provide playtime, and make sure your pup gets plenty of attention and care. My home is calm, clean, and dog-friendly. During the day, my two dogs free roam the house. They love lounging on the couch, looking out the window, or hanging out in my office while I work. They’re friendly and used to having a relaxed routine with lots of love and supervision. At night, my dogs sleep safely in their crates as part of their routine. I’m comfortable following whatever sleeping arrangements your dog is used to so they feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me.

About: I am a teacher and someone who truly loves animals. Caring for pets brings me a lot of joy, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are with me. Because of my work schedule, my availability is mainly on weekends. On weekdays, I can receive and drop off pets after 5 pm. During the day (8:30 am to 4:30 pm), I am at work, so pets would have a calm, quiet space at home during those hours. I always aim to create a warm, responsible, and caring environment where every dog feels at ease and well taken care of. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher, I have a structured schedule during the weekdays, which allows me to plan ahead and provide consistent care. In the mornings, I can take dogs out for a walk, feeding, and some playtime before starting my day. After work, I dedicate time in the afternoon and evening for walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I’m also available on weekends, where I have more flexibility to spend extra time with pets, including longer walks, playtime, and companionship. During the summer, I have significantly more availability, which makes it a perfect time for vacation bookings. You can plan your trips in advance knowing your pet will receive dedicated care and attention. I am very responsible with routines, so I always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any specific instructions from the owner to make sure their pet feels safe and at home. When caring for pets, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they are in my home or in their own environment. In my home, I create a calm and clean space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I give them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision to make sure they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am very respectful of their space and make sure to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I understand that staying in their own home can help pets feel more secure, so I focus on keeping their environment consistent while giving them companionship, care, and attention. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I adjust my care to match their personality whether they are energetic and playful or calm and shy. I am also happy to send regular updates and pictures, so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands 💛
“Brittany was a great sitter for Thor & Lucy. She communicated well & responded quickly. She also sent pictures of them which we greatly appreciated! We would recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a reliable sitter for their fur baby!”


“I had a great experience with LeNai. She was thorough during the intake, giving me a full tour and taking the time to get to know my dogs and their individual quirks. Rocko can be an anxious dog, but she took it in stride and was very patient with him. She gradually introduced him to other dogs safely and calmly, and was able to pick up on behavioral cues very well. She sent many photos and videos throughout the day to let me know they were doing well. I will most definitely use her services again.”

“Monica did a great job taking care of Lewis! She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated several times throughout the day! She helped Lewis feel comfortable and he had a great time! Thanks Monica!!!”

“After using rover for the first time I loved michaela once I met her she is a very genuine and understanding person she always send pictures of my sweet pup couldn’t asked for a better sitter ! ❤️”

“Kristin always does an excellent job communicating, making me feel comfortable that my pets are in great hands. I appreciate how dependable she is and would recommend her.”

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life, primarily large dogs up until end of life, as well as cats in the last 6 years. I’ve got extensive experience with these guys, and my love for these animals runs deep! I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is very flexible for visiting or playing with your pets! The best times to schedule me are between 8am and 8pm, but I am open to other hours with planning in advance. :) I have a screened in yard, as well as 2 crates for small dogs and cats, comfy beds, and toys for them to play with! I also have treats and a dedicated space within my home for them to relax in.

I am a college student so I am unavailable on Tuesdays and available starting from 1pm on Thursdays, and I work part time a few days a week, which will always be updated monthly in my calendar! I have two dogs of different ages, sizes, and needs and can handle anything from playtime to unhappy sailors. Walking on or off leash, feeding, and medicine are no problem at any age or temperament.

“Kortney has been great taking care of my Benji. She is reliable and very accommodating to last minute changes in my work schedule. I would definitely recommend her services.”

“Just one week into having Max (and his fiancé) take care of my two dogs and I’m already so impressed. Max and Jen took the time to get to know my dogs and asked tons of questions prior to starting weekly walks. They are both incredibly communicative and timely, send pictures and updates for each walk, and have been extremely patient with my female pup, who can be shy around new people. I will definitely turn to Max and Jen for any future dog sitting needs!”

“Keegan is great! She really cares about the dogs and their personalities. She notices the details about their behavior and knows how best to engage with them. Both times she spent the full 30 or 60 minutes with my dogs. She sent lots of pictures and notes about how things went. Best experience with rover so far.”

About: I currently care for an English Bull Terrier that loves people more than anything else, and is not great with dogs. She has taught me the importance of watching body language, getting ample exercise, taking safe walks to avoid other dogs, and giving all the snuggles needed. I am very aware of dogs needs and keeping distance on leashes because of her. I have been around dogs all my life, from smell driven hound dogs, to ball driven mixes, and I love to play with and care for them all! I grew up raising rats and I love them too! I know the importance of them having social interaction, clean cages, and preferred food. I am also familiar with guinea pigs and hamsters. I also have fresh water fish tanks and can do water changes, feeding and medicine. I currently don’t have any cats (or other pets) because of my dog, so I am itching to get some quality cat time in as well! I would love the chance to care for your pets too! *I will have my 2 year old daughter with me most days. She’s very gentle with animals, but does get excited and laugh a lot. I wear her on my back in a carrier when I enter homes and walk dogs, however if your pet doesn’t like kids or is scared, I won’t be able to help this summer. I am a stay at home mom so I can come check on your pets at the most convenient time for you. If you need someone to come snuggle your pets, let them out, and play with them at anytime of the day, I am your gal! I will make sure your animal has more than just a simple potty break before I leave. They will have love, attention, and exercise. I like to come in the door with a treat (if allowed!) for dogs. I will play ball until the cows come home, or give them all the snuggles and love they need.

“Casilya has been a god send. Shes deal with our last minute cancellations and additional requests like a champ. She is flexible whenever we need and has made multiple trips when I accidentally locked her out preventing the walk. She could have gone home and charged us anyways but she didn’t she came back to give my pup a much needed walk after I ran home on lunch to unlock the dog patio.”

“Priya was prompt, friendly, and did a great job walking my Blaze. The first day was interesting as Blaze constantly escaped her collar and running back to the house. By the second day Blaze was excited to see her and kept looking out the window when she left. I would recommend her for anyone who needs a good walker.”

“She took wonderful care of Loki, handled his excitement with patience, and even cleaned up after him. The photos she took are gorgeous and really capture his personality. highly recommend!”

Depending on distance I will be available for your pets for a mid day check in. I have experience at the Humane Society of Eastern North Carolina; walking/playing with dogs and feeding cats.

I’m willing to pick up and drop off, bathe, walk and entertain your animals. I will also house sit, water plants or check mail if needed. I love puppies and kittens and I’m willing to stay overnight if needed. Exotic pets welcome! I currently work one full time job. Durning the week I have a break mid day. No breaks on the weekends but shorter hours. Depending on the distance of the address I can stop in on my break as well as before and after work. I like to stick to house rules of the owner. Please let me know specific things you would like me to oblige by or things to look out for. Otherwise the standard no crewing on people things only their own stuff, no getting on tables or counters, no biting, no pee/poop on furniture, etc.

Alyssa and Spencer are fantastic. We met with them beforehand just to ease our concerns and the weekend went so well that we rebooked for two more trips this summer. We highly recommend them!”


“Cheryl is the best! Our pup is so happy there. She keeps us updated while we are away but his excitement when he arrives at her house is the tell tale sign of his happiness.”

“Peggy took amazingly great care of Amigo. Gave him special treats like a yogurt board and other puzzles. He loved many playful mornings in her great back yard with Peggy’s dog, Barklee! Her true love of dogs is apparent! Can’t think of enough great things to say! Book her with complete confidence!”


“Judith took amazing care of our Lava! We have now trusted Judith with our pup twice (once for a week when we were on vacation). If you are looking for a place that your pup can enjoy plenty of fenced in outdoor space with shade, other friendly dogs to play with, and caring caretakers—look no further!”

“Linda was great! Bear stayed with her over the holiday and had a great time. He came home happy, I got lots of communication and photos throughout the week, and he had a friend to play with!”
“Haley, took such good care of Eddie! Even let him eat where he was comfortable. Lol spoiling and lots of cuddles is an understatement. For our first time it was seamless and I wouldn't hesitate to have her watch him again.”

“Gabriella did great with my dog! She noticed he wasn't eating all his dog food and asked if she could supplement it with some dog-friendly broth. He loved it so much, he would eat his food in a minute or two. I am grateful to her for taking such great care of him!!”

“Hunter takes great care of our Roxie! She always comes home very happy. Hunter is reliable and keeps us updated. We also love the adorable pictures she sends of our girl.”

“We were in a pinch for a dog sitter and were so lucky to have found Kayla and her family. Our 10 month old lab is a hand full and they were wonderful with him. We had pictures and updates every day and didn't worry about him for a moment. We feel like Riley now has a second family to go to instead of boarding. We are truly grateful!”

“Cody is super communicative! He kept us updated on the pups and sent tons of pictures. We felt super comfortable having him watch our dogs and would definitely use him again!”

“Stephanie was great! She was very accommodating to the quick request for Sailor to stay. Sailor had a great time playing with her dog Nico and is going to sleep hard after the stay. Stephanie also sent several updates on how he was doing with photos included.”

“Rue had an amazing time playing with Gerardo's 2 dogs in their fenced-in backyard. She got to go on lots of walks and even to dog parks. Gerardo and his family seem to be so loving and engaging with the dogs, and I know our pup can't wait to get back. We were particularly impressed with the level of communication with us. We got great daily updates with lots of pictures.”

“Carolina did a wonderful job of taking care of Seamus. I got lots of updates and pictures throughout the week. It’s great that she has a dog that my dog could play with and run around with. Will definitely book again!”

“Celeste is the best. I had an unexpected delayed flight, and thankfully, Celeste was able to watch my dog longer than I had planned. I was updated regularly with pictures while on vacation that made my day. I knew my dog was in safe hands so I could enjoy my vacation. I definitely will use Celeste again.”

“Our pup is dealing with some medical issues and Daniel was more than willing to help so we could enjoy some time away, and we appreciate that more than we can say! We know our dog is safe and well cared for with Uncle Dan!”
“Deborah was absolutely wonderful! Immediately from the meet & greet I knew Cora was in great hands. She was extremely responsive and then had such a warm energy the minute we met her. Deborah had everything we needed for the stay including a crate, toys and a dog bed! Cora had a great time in her yard. Deb also did a wonderful job with some thunderstorm anxiety and making sure Cora was as comfortable as possible. I will absolutely look to book with her again! Thanks so much for all the love and care you gave Cora!!”

“Debra was the sweetest. She took care of my babies like her own and constantly updated me with pictures and videos. Will definitely choose her again for the next boarding 🫶🏻🫶🏻”

“An amazing experience. My dog was cared for and had such a good time. Received lots of pics and videos of my pooch on his doggy vacation and he was clean and happy when we came to pick him up. Thank you so much!!”

“Judd and his family were great! He is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience with senior dogs. He went out of his way to send updates and photos to make sure I knew my dog was comfortable and happy. I was nervous about leaving my senior dog but he gave me all the confidence and reassurance I needed to enjoy my weekend away. Thank you Judd!”


“We are EXTREMELY PLEASED with our experience with Wesley. Our dog Nikko get’s a little nervous around new people and situations. But he took to Wesley pretty quickly thanks to his calming personality. His home was nice and welcoming, and he sent us pictures daily. We will definitely book with Wesley again.”
