“Ronald is the best!!! He is so good with our dog and always accommodates us even if we have stuff come up last minute. We will always send our Willow to him, he simply gives her the best care.”
“I can't say enough positive things about my and my pup's experience with Brad. 1. Booking/Communication - From the initial booking, Brad was communicative and responsive ensuring that I would feel comfortable even before I dropped my pup off. 2. Drop off - At drop-off, Brad was extremely attentive to understand the unique needs of my pup especially as it pertained to his medication. In my moving around, I forgot to bring something my pup needed. Brad was extremely helpful in getting it resolved so that my pup's stay would be just fine. Additionally, Brad went out of his way to ask how, and what frequency, I wanted to be updated on my pup's stay. 3. Stay - My pup had a fantastic time staying with Brad and having pup siblings at Brad's house. I'm confident of this not only because, true to his word, Brad was not only communicative about what was going on each day (for the entire ~3wk stay), but he also sent pictures and videos with funny notes! I could see that my dog was active not only outside but inside the home, was playing well with the other dogs, and was being loved and snuggled daily. 4. Pick-up - The day of pick-up, my flight was delayed impacting my ability to pick-up my pup on time. Brad was completely understanding and was communicative to ensure that I had no worries. When I arrived to pick up my pup, all of the things I sent with my pup came home in great condition AND Brad sent me home with a treat that he had graciously been giving my pup as well! I could tell my pup was excited to go home but was sad to leave Brad and his new friends! Overall, we will DEFINITELY use Brad again and recommend him to anyone that is looking for someone to treat their pup like family when they have to go away. Thanks again, Brad!”
“Cory watched Sofia for me while I made a work trip. She had so much fun hanging with him and his pups. His pups are so sweet and love to be outside like Sofia does! Cory responded quickly to all my texts and sent me pictures”
“Stephanie was AMAZING!! Will never send our pup back to a boarding facility now that we have found her. She took such great care of our girl and sent updates with pictures every day, which is a huge plus. 10/10 recommended Stephanie and we will be using her in the future for every boarding need.”
About: Hello! I am a new sitter here, and looking to help provide the care, attention, and love your pup needs! Big or small, shy or hyper, I am here to tend all of your pup’s needs! I am a previous dog owner of 2 amazing pups of my own, Gizeylle (Black Lab & Australian Shepherd 16yrs) and Spike (Rednose Staffordshire Terrier 8yrs) who have both crossed the rainbow bridge. With that being said, spending time with other dogs has been healing and therapeutic for me during my own grieving process. I am experienced in handling dogs of different breeds, temperaments, sizes, AND ages. I will treat your baby like one of mine. ❤️ I have pretty open availability, as I have been laid off, so I have much free time for check-ins, walks, and sitting. Please inquire on the availability needed for your pup. I have a large yard with space for your pup to sunbathe in. My yard is not fenced, so they will need to come with a leash and collar/harness. Please bring your pup’s bed, crate, etc. for their own comfort.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I needed a dog sitter at the very last minute due to an upcoming major surgery after my previous sitter plans fell through. I was stressed trying to find someone I could trust, and then I aligned with Alexis and I will be forever grateful that I did. When I say Alexis did an exceptional job caring for my Nahla girl, I truly mean it. She communicated consistently, kept me updated, and genuinely cared about Nahla’s health and well-being. She even offered helpful tips and showed so much compassion and attentiveness throughout the entire stay. Knowing Nahla was in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind during a very difficult time. Alexis has been amazing across the board, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!”
“Our dog always has the BEST time with Ashley and Robert! We love the updates and photos we get, and know she is taken well care of and having so much fun with their dogs too!! We love having our Pup stay with Ashley and Robert!”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”
“Susan and her family love Penny like she’s their dog. When we pulled into the driveway, Penny couldn’t wait to get out of the car to see them again. There is no greater review than your dog joyfully going to their boarder! Susan sends the best pictures and videos to recap the day. Susan has always communicated quickly. She is our go to boarder for our girl.”
“Tonya and Sam are such caring and compassionate pet people! Our bichon loves staying with Tonya and her family! Their home is his second home away from home. We highly recommend her! We will definitely book with Tonya again in the future!”
“Jessica was great! Extremely responsive and sent so many pics and videos. I could tell my pup was having so much fun with her pups and was very well taken care of.”
“Monique was awesome. My anxious dog had a great time with her friendly dog. She sent pictures and put my mind at ease. She has a very calm spirit and is good with dogs. I highly recommend her.”
“Courtney was PHENOMENAL 🙌🏽! She took such good care of my dog Ollie and made sure to keep me in the loop of anything and everything that she did and went on. I had some last minute changes and she was understanding and flexible. Courtney definitely exceeded my expectations and I would 100% book with her again. I felt safe, comfortable, and secure leaving my pup with her while I was away on vacation. Anyone who’s looking for a phenomenal sitter I’d 100% would recommend her. Thank you so much for everything you did and taking such great care of my dog”
“Was great! Sent pictures for updates and even accommodated me when I had to switch my pick up time. My dog had access to a big yard and seemed to have plenty interaction when wanted/needed. Would definitely use again!”
“Sarah and Erik were wonderful! Our lab Smoky stayed with them for several days and no doubt had a great time. They have a very safe and welcoming space and a great yard for larger dogs who love to play, and their sweet pup Rosie is just the icing on the cake! Would definitely recommend 😊”
“My dog Gracie had a wonderful time staying with Krissa as evident by the pictures that Krissa sent of Gracie during her stay. Krissa has a very large fenced in yard and is quite knowledgeable of dogs. I'm comfortable leaving my little girl with Krissa and know that Gracie will enjoy herself.”

“Our four kitties left Madison glowing reviews! It was our first time using Rover and also our first time going on an extended vacation with 4 cats at home. Our kitties have some particular needs and Madison was able to accommodate each and every one. We missed our babies the whole time that we were gone, but we felt safe with Madison checking in on them. She sent us some great photos and updates. She will be our go to cat sitter from now on!”
“I’m new to the area and was really nervous about leaving my four cats for a week, especially my senior cat who’s 15 and requires a little extra care and attention. Amy was fantastic from the start—professional, kind, and clearly a true animal lover. She took the time to get to know each of my cats and made me feel completely at ease. I received regular updates and photos, which really helped me relax while I was away. When I returned, everything was spotless and the cats were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. Amy went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful to have found her. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We are return bookers of Natalia and can't recommend her enough for anyone looking for a pet sitter! She always does a great job during drop in visits for our two cats. Natalia is very communicative and even brings in our packages for us and checks on other household things while we're away. We will definitely continue to book with her, thank you Natalia!!”
“Our anti-social kitty likes her better than us! Allison is incredible!!! From the moment we met her for a meet & greet I knew she was perfect. We felt 100% comfortable with her coming in to our home, and knew our cats were in great hands. She’s responsible, great at communicating with us, and so sweet. She must be a cat whisperer because our shy kitty not only snuggled her day 1, but even let Allison rub her belly! We are so thankful to have such a wonderful professional do checkins/feeding while we were away.”
“Carrie was amazing looking after my cat Bones while I was out of town! She left me notes and photos every day which I really appreciate. I definitely recommend her and will definitely re-book in the future.”
“I am amazed by Emmalyn! I just moved and i found her 2 days before my trip and she was the best! Very communicative, very detailed and she took the best care of my cats! Very loving. She also sent some extra videos and pictures. I will be hiring her again.”
“We booked Hilary at the last minute during the holidays and she was super helpful and responsive. Our cat is usually a grumpy lady, but she warmed up right away to Hilary. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Lauren was wonderful with our boy Maxie this week. In fact the whole experience working with her from first introduction to us and to Max before booking her, through the care and to the end of our trip was all excellent. Max took to her right away, a big reassurance to us going off on our trip. Then each day of her time with him (pet sitting for a good portion of each day) she provided plenty of pictures and videos to let us know how things were going. Great communication and feedback. Lauren is highly recommended based on our experience, and we will definitely be booking her again! Very much appreciate all that she does.”
“She was incredible! My cats loved her, even my little girl cat who has never let anyone else pet her! She left my house perfect and everyone was happy when we got home. Extremely good communication, will definitely book again!!”
“Thank you so much, Autumn, for taking such wonderful care of Molly and Bella. I really appreciate the time, attention, and kindness you gave them at lunchtimes. It means a lot to know they were in such good hands. You did a great job, and I’m grateful for your help.”
About: I have years of experience caring for cats, and I genuinely enjoy the everyday rhythms of pet care like feeding, playtime, litter care, and quiet companionship. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality, boundaries, and routines. I understand that pets can have very different needs: some are energetic and social, others are shy, sensitive, or independent. I’m calm, observant, and gentle in my approach, and I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away.
“Sierra was awesome 👏 she was so sweet with our cat Daisy Mae and sent lots of photos at each drop in visit and was here promptly at each visit our cat is skittish and she came out for belly rubs at the second visit would definitely have Sierra back again for Daisy Mae thanks Sierra !!”

“My Husky is so loved and well taken care of with Jennifer and Matthew. I work long days, and can trust that she's gotten all her zoomies out and is super happy when I pick her up. That's a huge relief for me knowing she gets her needs met while I'm working.”
About: I’m the definition of a “dog person” — we’ve had several of our own, and we’ve been a boarding stop for friends and family for years. I’m not working full-time right now, so I have plenty of time to exercise your fur-friend, or just drop in for a visit! If you have any specific questions or concerns, I’d be happy to answer them! I’m not working full-time at the moment, so I’m available any day, at any time! Plenty of time for long walks or drop-ins, whatever your pet needs. Whatever you and your pet are comfortable with! I’ve dealt with tiny dogs and huge dogs, seniors and young puppies — they’re all special to me.
“Sandra is an amazing sitter! She took very good care of my dog Ruby, being very communicative, loving, and caring throughout the stay. I highly recommend her and will continue to book her for boarding.”
“Carrie was phenomenal. One of our dogs had a health scare a few days before we were supposed to leave and she managed three medications with multiple doses per day and kept a close eye on her while still caring for our other dog and making sure they were both so so happy. Couldn’t be more grateful for her help while we were away.”
About: What sets me apart is my ability to take pet care seriously without taking myself too seriously. I’m patient, observant, calm, and respectful of routines. I’m especially great with independent pets, seniors, shy animals, and anyone who needs a gentle, steady presence rather than chaos. I’m naturally nurturing, detail-oriented, and calm. I believe animals deserve consistency, patience, and kindness. I’m the type of person who talks to pets like they understand (because… they do), celebrates small wins like a voluntary cuddle, and never rushes trust. I take pride in being reliable, warm, and easy to work with. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule intentionally, allowing time for feedings, check-ins, play, and quiet companionship. I’m consistent, punctual, and flexible, and I never treat pet care like an afterthought. Its something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I treat every home and pet with respect and care. I follow instructions closely, double-check doors and routines, and keep environments calm and secure. I prioritize cleanliness, safety, and your pet’s comfort at all times. Trust matters to me! Both yours and your pet’s and I work to earn it every visit.
About: I was a volunteer rescuer and foster home for several animal rescue organizations, I have cared for elderly animals as well as puppies, I know how to administer medications. I am available every day of the week, as well as in the evenings, I can take them for morning or afternoon walks, depending on the pet owner's preference. I don't have my own pets, I live in an apartment that does accept pets in a quiet neighborhood with green areas to walk peacefully.
About: I’ve had dogs pretty much my entire life. I grew up with rescues and pitbull so I do pretty well with reactive dogs and dogs with a lot of anxiety. I work from home so I am pretty good about schedules in terms of walking or medication’s, etc.. i’m currently part-time fostering dogs, but also looking to help people with current dogs. I currently have a full-time job, but I do work from home! I am a very kind and caring person who enjoys walking along the light rail a lot! I typically go for a walk every single day so having a dog with me just makes it 10 times better! I am in an apartment, but I do work from home! My job is also so pretty flexible if I need to step away for potty breaks or walks!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my professional experience working at a dog boarding facility for two years, where I cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments. This experience has given me the skills to handle various situations, from managing energetic pups to providing special attention for senior dogs. Additionally, I've been a dog owner since 2012, which has allowed me to develop a strong understanding of dog behavior, training, and the everyday care needed to keep a pet happy and healthy. I am dedicated to providing your pet with the best possible experience. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of extra time to care and love for your pet. I am free mornings and early afternoon as well as late nights. But I can be flexible. Whatever you and your pet need. Unfortunately, my childhood dog recently passed away but now I have extra space and time for your pets! I have all the necessary things to care for your pet as well as a crate for smaller dogs if needed. But every dog is different so the routine I had for my dog is different than the routine your pet is used to, so whatever your pet needs while you are away, I will be happy to provide that for you both.
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I currently own a large dog and am responsible for all aspects of his daily care, including feeding, walking, basic training, grooming, and monitoring his health and behavior. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs as well as calmer or more sensitive ones. I have experience managing leash pulling, reinforcing basic commands, and creating a calm, safe environment both indoors and outdoors. I always prioritize safety, routine, and positive reinforcement. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, body language, and comfort level, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, patient, and proactive when it comes to communication and care. I'm currently working from home. So I have plenty of time to play with your dog. I'm available for boarding and day care on weekends and weekday. I have yard and a friendly Bernese Mountain Dog to keep your fur baby company. I will keep the floor clean so that the dogs have enough space to play.
“Max was very good with Rocco. He was attentive and sent updates during the day. It was clear that Rocco was comfortable and well cared for. We look forward to working with Max again in the future.”
“Took excellent care of my two dogs even though it was a last minute request. They came back tired from all the fun they had, i would absolutely recommend and will definitely request again when im in town.”
About: Since I was very little I always had pets at home, so the love for them goes back to being a very young girl, I enjoy sharing with them I think that sometimes it is what gives meaning to my life I stay at home caring for my baby, which allows me to be present and have plenty of time to care for pets. I have availability every day of the week and can provide attentive, consistent, and loving care. I live in a house with plenty of space. I also have a fenced yard. If you're afraid of my cats being with your pet, I'd be happy to lock them up. They're used to living with dogs.
“Amazing with my pup, we had a meet and greet and Mia was extremely comfortable with them. When it was daycare time, Mia was excited to to see Erin! Erin sent updates throughout the day and went above and beyond to learn how to use insulin needles for Mia next visit. Will def be rebooking.”
“Sarah and her family took amazing care of our dog Berry!! He had a wonderful time playing in the yard and with other dogs. Sarah was incredibly responsive and sent us pictures and updates throughout his time with her. We really appreciate her accommodating our last minute day care request and highly reccomend her!”
“great dog sitter! Laura took great care of our pup, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Our dog came home happy and well cared for. We highly recommend them and will definitely book again!😊”

“I was incredibly lucky to find Madison to help walk my dog while I recovered from surgery. I could not have asked for a more caring, dependable dog walker. Madison showed up every day for two months, on time, happy and ready to go. My dog Olive absolutely adores her. I do not know what I would have done without her. Highly, highly recommend her services.”
About: I've spent close to my whole living with dogs. Constantly learning how to better train them and care for them. Besides my love for dogs, I also have extensive training in emergency training for dogs. I was also a Flight Medic for the military, which included being trained and tasked with caring for injured or sick military working dogs. While I'd never claim to be an expert in this field, you can trust that I know how to take care of your furry family members. I am currently working full time for this position until my civilian licensure in Healthcare is approved, which will take several months. I'll be available day and night, and have no problem working on the weekends if we schedule in advance. I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs that live with my wife and I. Tucker is a chocolate lab, he's the oldest at 10. Milo and Kiwi are two high energy German Short-haired Pointers, at 4 and 2 years old. We split between fresh food and kibble, and are no strangers to giving medications to our dogs.
About: I’ve always loved dogs, and have always helped my friends and neighbors train and watch over their dogs. I am currently training my German shepherd, and had a very well mannered husky lab mix that was the love of my life for 10 years
About: I have over 12 years of experience in dog care, with a strong background in grooming, vet assisting, training, and behavioral work. I’ve completed educational courses through colleges and attended numerous seminars and certification classes to deepen my knowledge. This hands-on experience, combined with formal training, has allowed me to work effectively with dogs of all breeds and temperaments, ensuring they receive the best care and attention. Whether it's grooming, behavior modification, or general wellness, I am dedicated to providing top-quality care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. Pet care is truly the core of my daily routine. My day begins with feeding routines, followed by cleaning my dog training room and conducting morning training sessions or walks. The rest of the day is dedicated to various aspects of animal care, including grooming, training, playtime, feeding, meal prep, and administering medications when needed. I do it all to ensure the well-being of every pet I care for. On weekends, I’m usually at a dog sport trial or competition, or enjoying outdoor activities like hiking and swimming with my pets, or simply relaxing and bonding with them. Pet care is not just a job for me; it's my passion and lifestyle. I provide exceptional care for dogs, whether in my own home or a client’s, by combining my animal medical experience, grooming skills, training expertise, and dog behaviorist background. With my experience in training and behavior modification, I can address a wide range of behavioral issues, ensuring dogs are well-mannered and comfortable in their environment. I am well-versed in administering medications and handling medical needs, ensuring each dog’s health is closely monitored. My grooming experience allows me to maintain their coats, keeping them clean, comfortable, and healthy. Above all, I approach every pet with respect, recognizing their unique needs and preferences. I take pride in being responsible and reliable, offering a safe and loving environment while upholding the highest standards of care.
“We have nothing but amazing things to say about Amber and the way she took care of our two dogs! We left for a week and she walked them 3 times a day for us—from the first walk we could tell we were going to be able to rest easy with them in her care. She treated them like her own and sent updates/photos every time! We know they loved their time with her and we will definitely be booking again next time we leave town.”
“Natalia has been great with our two dogs! They are normally pretty anxious but have warmed right up to her!! She is on time, communicates well, and takes cute pictures of the boys :) We will definitely continue using her for future visits!”
“Robert has been taking my dog, Craig, for walks on a weekly basis for about six months now. I highly recommend him as he has been very friendly, dependable, and reliable. Robert took really good care of Craig and made sure his needs were met during each visit, especially during times when Craig wasn’t feeling well. He also took the best dog photos which were a joy to receive in the middle of a work shift. I’m very satisfied with his services overall!”

“Alexis took such great care of My "Dawgter" ?? She went way above and beyond to assure Jade was taken care of and she was prompt and did everything she said she would.

About: Hey there, my name is Christina! I am a long time pet owner, and I have volunteered through Tri-County Animal Rescue for over four years. Through this experience I have worked with various breeds as well as pets with different temperaments. I am very comfortable with any breed, big or small. I am also very comfortable taking care of cats, or any other species of pet. I am very active and typically hike, run, or bike daily, and I am more than happy to bring your dog along with me! Your beloved pet will get tons of excercise with me, which will decrease any anxiety levels, and tire them out for a good night’s sleep! They will also receive ample playtime, I have lots of room to run around in my large secure fenced in backyard. Your pet will be well taken care of, doted on, & excercised to their heart’s content. I am home full time because I work from home, so your pet will never be put in their kennel or left for any amount of time. If you prefer your dog to sleep in a kennel at night, I will be more than happy to accommodate that, although they are more than welcome to sleep on my bed or with my dogs. I have two dogs, one is a 6 year old large gentle giant who is very calm, named Sasha. She is a small Great Pyrenees, and is very friendly and good at making new doggy guests feel at home! I have a small chihuahua who is equally as friendly, and both of them do very well with other dogs as well as cats, with no aggressive tendencies whatsoever. I also have a small, friendly indoor cat - so any pet that will stay with us needs to be cat friendly, or atleast non-aggressive towards cats. Training method such as crate training and any other forms of obedience training can be continued during their stay with me, as well as medication administration. As an experienced pet owner, I understand the worries that come with leaving your loved one with someone else. You can rest assured they are in good hands with me. I offer meet and greets before you schedule your booking so that you can meet me and verify if you feel comfortable, and I am always available via message to answer any questions. I send daily pictures and updates multiple times a day during the duration of your pet’s stay with me, and keep you up to date on all the fun your dog is having! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible! I am able to accommodate any needs including medication administration. I am also available for home visits. I have a fenced in yard and I can walk your pup multiple times a day - as well as providing playtime! Cats or other species are also welcome.
About: As an experienced dog owner of medium and large sized dogs, and a lover of little dogs, I can offer loving companionship and care for your pet. I also have a lot of experience with senior dogs and those recovering from surgeries and can assist with those needs as well. I have plenty of time to take care of your pet any day of the week, between 9:00am - 5:00pm. If different hours are needed, we can discuss that. For pet care in your home, I will follow any instructions you have for their care and comfort. A typical visit would include a potty break/walk, a treat, and a little time petting them and telling them what a good and lovely baby they are. If feeding or medication is needed that can also be handled during my visit.

“Ronald is the best!!! He is so good with our dog and always accommodates us even if we have stuff come up last minute. We will always send our Willow to him, he simply gives her the best care.”
“Cory watched Sofia for me while I made a work trip. She had so much fun hanging with him and his pups. His pups are so sweet and love to be outside like Sofia does! Cory responded quickly to all my texts and sent me pictures”
“Stephanie was AMAZING!! Will never send our pup back to a boarding facility now that we have found her. She took such great care of our girl and sent updates with pictures every day, which is a huge plus. 10/10 recommended Stephanie and we will be using her in the future for every boarding need.”
About: Hello! I am a new sitter here, and looking to help provide the care, attention, and love your pup needs! Big or small, shy or hyper, I am here to tend all of your pup’s needs! I am a previous dog owner of 2 amazing pups of my own, Gizeylle (Black Lab & Australian Shepherd 16yrs) and Spike (Rednose Staffordshire Terrier 8yrs) who have both crossed the rainbow bridge. With that being said, spending time with other dogs has been healing and therapeutic for me during my own grieving process. I am experienced in handling dogs of different breeds, temperaments, sizes, AND ages. I will treat your baby like one of mine. ❤️ I have pretty open availability, as I have been laid off, so I have much free time for check-ins, walks, and sitting. Please inquire on the availability needed for your pup. I have a large yard with space for your pup to sunbathe in. My yard is not fenced, so they will need to come with a leash and collar/harness. Please bring your pup’s bed, crate, etc. for their own comfort.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I needed a dog sitter at the very last minute due to an upcoming major surgery after my previous sitter plans fell through. I was stressed trying to find someone I could trust, and then I aligned with Alexis and I will be forever grateful that I did. When I say Alexis did an exceptional job caring for my Nahla girl, I truly mean it. She communicated consistently, kept me updated, and genuinely cared about Nahla’s health and well-being. She even offered helpful tips and showed so much compassion and attentiveness throughout the entire stay. Knowing Nahla was in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind during a very difficult time. Alexis has been amazing across the board, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!”
“Our dog always has the BEST time with Ashley and Robert! We love the updates and photos we get, and know she is taken well care of and having so much fun with their dogs too!! We love having our Pup stay with Ashley and Robert!”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”
“Susan and her family love Penny like she’s their dog. When we pulled into the driveway, Penny couldn’t wait to get out of the car to see them again. There is no greater review than your dog joyfully going to their boarder! Susan sends the best pictures and videos to recap the day. Susan has always communicated quickly. She is our go to boarder for our girl.”
“Tonya and Sam are such caring and compassionate pet people! Our bichon loves staying with Tonya and her family! Their home is his second home away from home. We highly recommend her! We will definitely book with Tonya again in the future!”
“Jessica was great! Extremely responsive and sent so many pics and videos. I could tell my pup was having so much fun with her pups and was very well taken care of.”
“Courtney was PHENOMENAL 🙌🏽! She took such good care of my dog Ollie and made sure to keep me in the loop of anything and everything that she did and went on. I had some last minute changes and she was understanding and flexible. Courtney definitely exceeded my expectations and I would 100% book with her again. I felt safe, comfortable, and secure leaving my pup with her while I was away on vacation. Anyone who’s looking for a phenomenal sitter I’d 100% would recommend her. Thank you so much for everything you did and taking such great care of my dog”
“Was great! Sent pictures for updates and even accommodated me when I had to switch my pick up time. My dog had access to a big yard and seemed to have plenty interaction when wanted/needed. Would definitely use again!”
“Sarah and Erik were wonderful! Our lab Smoky stayed with them for several days and no doubt had a great time. They have a very safe and welcoming space and a great yard for larger dogs who love to play, and their sweet pup Rosie is just the icing on the cake! Would definitely recommend 😊”
