“Elisheba was wonderful with my dog. She gave me daily updates on how she was doing and sent me fun pictures of the adventures they had while I was gone. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your pet as she has a true love for animals and she will welcome them into her home and take care of them as if it was her own pet.”
“Katie was a perfect sitter for Nash! She gave him the attention and love he wanted, a great house to feel comfortable in and he almost didn’t want to leave!”
“They were amazing! My pups did not go without love. They sent pictures to update us on eating habits, play time and behaviors. I appreciated the updates and loved the fact they were dog lovers. When I dropped off the pups, they made sure they would do well in a new environment before leaving. When we returned from out of town, they were understanding of our late arrival and had the pups fed before we came. Overall, I would choose them again.”
“Jill did an amazing job with my dog. She kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. She took him on walks and kept him safe, and happy. I will definitely use her again.”
About: I love animals, and have a cat and dog of my own. I have a fenced yard for dogs to run around in. I am doing this so my dog can have playdates(!) and just because I love animals. I work from home Mon/Fri so I focus on weekend stays, and only accept only one family at a time. So rest assured that your cat/dog will be well taken care of! I work from home Monday and Friday, and my work is pretty flexible on other days. I go on walks every day and live minutes away from a dog park as well! I have a fenced yard and a dog to play with. My dog and cat are both fully vaccinated. I have a dedicated pet room that can be closed off for separation if needed, and a crate as well.
“Taylor was great! She was kind and gentle with Elfie. During Elfie's stay, she sent photos and text messages reassuring us that she was okay. We will be using Rover and Taylor for future needs. Scott B.”
“Caleigh was great at communication both before and during our dog’s stay with her and my dog looked happy and content throughout her stay. Would recommend and use Caleigh again!”
“We love sending our dog Bratwurst to stay with Amir! Amir is always kind and communicative and is very knowledgeable about exactly what our dog needs to have a safe and happy experience. Would highly recommend Amir and we will definitely plan to work with him again!”
“Ideal situation...Dion works from home so Skye spent most of her time out and about. Dion also has a dog, Gabby, who was a built in playmate for Skye so I’m sure she had more exercise and playtime than her usual day. Lastly, Dion has two adorable children who played with Skye like she was their dog. I’m surprised she wanted to come home! Thanks Dion!”
“Excellent stay with Jennifer and Robert! Very friendly, easy to communicate with, and felt comfortable leaving Willow with them. I will definitely be using them again.”
“Kimberely was the best sitter I have had. I could tell my dog thoroughly enjoyed her time. She stopped to say thank you to Kimberely. Kim creates a loving, safe and fun environment. She watches several dogs at a time which was the best mix for my dog. The dogs were having a dog party every day. I already have Kim booked for my dog's next stay. I know my dog misses Kim already!”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Courteous, competent, really helped in a pickle with our challenging puppy. Words can't express how much I appreciate his care for dog. He sent us pictures of how happy she was while we were gone and she very clearly missed him when she got back home. I would definitely ask him to host her again in the future if needed.”
“Our dog love his stay with Scott and Alycia. They were very accommodating, quick to communicate and sent us lots of pictures. William went on several walks, played tug with their dog and had a great time with them! Would recommend them to anyone!”
“Gabrielle was a great pet sitter for our dog! She was very communicative and easy to work with. She sent us pictures and let us know everything was going great! Would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Jenny and her family and dog were wonderful hosts for our dog Gretel. Gretel got walks and affection and seemed very comfortable there. A very responsible and caring host. We will be happy to have Gretel stay with them again.”
“Ronald watched my puppy over a busy holiday weekend - not a small feat! He was responsive and sent updates throughout the weekend. Highly appreciated and would definitely recommend Ronald!”
“I asked Rebecca to watch my dog for the day when our travel schedules became hectic and I couldn’t leave him at home alone for such long stretches of time. Rebecca was so accommodating and responsive, even with such a last minute request. My dog absolutely loved his day with her family, getting all the love and attention he could handle. We will definitely be booking again!”

“I cannot say enough of how much I appreciate Emma!!!! I am usually a little nervous when I leave my cat with someone new. This is my first time booking her and it definitely will not be my last. She went above and beyond to make sure Bug (my cat) was comfortable, loved, and well taken care of. She went out of her way to help with things and to ensure that Bug is safe at home. Do NOT hesitate to book her. She will take really good care of your pets ❤️❤️”

“Meranda was kind enough to have a meet and greet with us before drop-in kitty sitting at our home over a long weekend. I quickly felt at ease allowing her into our home and entertaining our fluffy son! She was very communicative, timely, and clearly is a cat whisperer. We appreciate all the pics and videos too! Excellent experience and Señor Ignacio thanks her!”
“We’re so grateful for Emily! She’s attentive, sweet, playful, and patient with our puppy, Frisbee and even helps with her training and tricks! For us she is responsive and reliable, giving us peace of mind when we’re away during the day. Frisbee looks forward to Emily’s visits!”

“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”
“Joanne and her husband did a wonderful job watching Frankie! They provided updates throughout the day which I always appreciate. Would definitely recommend them to others and we will absolutely use them again in the future.”

“Kelly is the best! Our dog Charli can be a bit anxious, but Kelly goes out of her way to make Charli comfortable and does an excellent job caring for her. Charli now looks forward to her daycare sessions with Kelly!”
“Dottie goes to Emma’s all day, 3 days a week and just loves it! She gets so excited as soon as we pull in the driveway! Emma is responsive, helpful, kind, gentle and great with my little dog!”
“Leo went to his first daycare with Katie and he loved it! She greeted him at the door and welcomed him and made sure the other pups were away so he wouldn't be overwhelmed walking in. He loved it and can't wait for his next stay! He was definitely tuckered out from all the fun he had playing with the other pups. You can tell Katie knows how to handle things and is a dog-lover. We're so glad we found her!”

About: Hi there, thank you for taking the time to consider me! I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals. Friends and family have relied on me to care for their precious babies since I was 12 years old. Growing up, my family always had animals. I have experience caring for dogs aged puppy through senior, giving meds, bottles feeding, and even diaper changes if needed! I have a very flexible job allowing me to work from a laptop M-F so I can be very portable. This allows me to keep up with play time, regular potty breaks, feeding schedules and even walks of course! Thank you for taking the time to consider me and I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I work from home M-F and my job is very flexible! I regularly have downtime with an occasional phone call! This allows me to be 100% present with your pet. I have flexibility to provide whatever is needed in your home or mine. Pups will get regular walks, potty breaks, scheduled meals and of course naps all day long!
“My puppy enjoyed the day playing with Brandon and his friendly pets. Brandon was reliable, responsive, worked well with my puppy’s energy level, and sent me a lot of updates during the day. We will be back.”
About: I’ve been around and cared for animals for over 20 years and truly enjoy being around them. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with different personalities — from energetic pups to more anxious or senior pets. I offer walks, drop-in visits, and boarding in my home. I do have a cat, and he is used to being around dogs, but I always prioritize safety and comfort for everyone. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal like they’re part of the family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home and structure my schedule intentionally, so I’m able to provide consistent walks, feeding times, and attention throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-ins, and when boarding, pets are rarely left alone for long periods. I value routine and make sure each pet’s normal schedule is maintained to help them feel comfortable and secure. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood with my son (7 YO) and our cat, Toto. While our backyard is not fenced, dogs are always leashed for outdoor time and walks. We have great sidewalks and a quiet area that’s ideal for daily exercise. Inside the home, I provide a calm and supervised environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s comfort level and always prioritize safety, clear communication with owners, and following specific care instructions. I’m also happy to schedule meet-and-greets beforehand to ensure everyone feels confident.
About: Hi! I’m Jenna — a recent transplant from a Colorado to Cincinnati, and a dog mom of one little munchkin. I know how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, as I used to travel tons! So my goal now that I can care for others is to make both you and your pup feel totally at ease. I’ve cared for dogs on and off the Rover platform of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, from easygoing seniors to high-energy walkers who need a good workout. I’m super detail oriented & therefore very attentive to routines — feeding schedules, walk preferences, medication instructions, and any quirks that make your dog your dog. You can expect regular photo and video updates, clear communication, and a calm, responsible approach to care. I treat every dog like they’re my own, which means I’m a great fit if you’re looking for someone dependable, communicative, and genuinely invested in your dog’s well-being. I’m happy to do a meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a good match! Looking forward to meeting you and your pup 🐾 Im in the office during the week, but regularly free on nights & weekends for support when you have other life commitments. My own dog, Nash, is home when I’m at work and we can arrange crate time or separate rooms if staying overnight. I'm available to take your dog out on long walks, play fetch in the backyard, or just keep them company for a break in their day. Whatever works for your dog works for me!
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of friends and families! I’ve boarded dogs with high energy, such as Australian Shepherds and low energy, such as senior dogs. I work from home, so your dog will receive all the love and care it needs! I am currently work from home, so I have all the time in the world to care for your dog! My job is very flexible, making it easy to tend to your dog’s needs. I am located at Factory 52 where there is plenty of areas to walk safely! Whether it’s around campus of Factory 52 or neighboring communities, safe sidewalks and clean up has been a top priority and safety for the dogs I care for. Additionally, there is an onsite dog park that is fenced for your pet to run freely!
About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and that hands-on experience is what I bring to every walk. I understand dog body language, pacing, leash manners, and how to read when a dog needs a break or a bit more activity — not from a course, but from years of actually living with dogs day to day. I treat every walk the same way I would for my own dog: attentive, on time, and focused entirely on their safety and comfort for the full duration. Whether your dog is high-energy, a little nervous around new people, or just needs a steady routine, I adjust to what they need rather than running a one-size-fits-all walk. You can expect clear communication before and after every visit, so you always know exactly how things went. My schedule is flexible throughout the day, so dog walking isn't squeezed into a narrow window — it's a real part of my daily routine. That means I can offer consistent mid-morning, afternoon, or early evening walks, and I'm also able to accommodate last-minute requests or changes in timing without it being a scramble. If your schedule shifts week to week, I can usually adjust to match it. Safety is the first thing I think about with every walk. When I arrive, I double-check that all doors and gates are secure before I bring your dog out, and I make sure the leash and collar or harness are properly fitted before we leave — no slipping out mid-walk. I stick to routes I know well, avoid off-leash areas unless specifically asked, and keep a close eye on other dogs, traffic, and anything that could startle or spook your dog. I always carry water on hot days and adjust the pace or length of the walk based on weather and how your dog is doing that day. Before I leave, I make sure your home is exactly as I found it — doors locked, lights as they were, nothing out of place. If anything ever comes up during a walk, you'll hear from me right away, not after the fact.
“Poppy had a great daycare with Maria and Beanie! Maria sent updates with photos and is great with communication regarding services and care. Highly recommend and will be scheduling another visit soon :)”
About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies and young dogs who need extra patience and consistency to senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, extra bathroom breaks, or additional attention. I’m also happy working with shy, anxious, or nervous pets and always let them warm up to me at their own pace. I believe the little things make a big difference—keeping pets on their normal routine, providing plenty of play and affection, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Most importantly, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal. I take that responsibility seriously and strive to give every pet the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m dependable, flexible, and able to provide consistent walks, playtime, attention, and loving care throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s routine. I give plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection, while respecting their individual needs.

I work evenings so I would have availability in the morning and early afternoon. I would also be available for pet care full time on the weekends. I will always make sure your pet gets the full attention and care they deserve! Your home will be left just as clean as I found it, and I will treat it with respect.
“Alison has been very reliable and responsive. She’s been walking our new puppy for the last couple weeks to help us get her out of the crate during our work day so she isn’t in there more than 4hrs. Puppy dealing with some pretty bad stomach issues and Alison very helpful with this as far as checking in with worried pup mom and offering more water/different options when pup not up for a walk. She’s been wonderful and we’re very grateful. Will continue to use her services as long as we can and are in a situation where work schedule forces pup into crate for too many hours.”

Now I regularly cat sit for a coworker and am the go to whenever anyone needs help with pets. I have lots of experience with senior dogs, but am willing and able to take care of all ages and sizes. My job schedule is not the most consistent, but typically 9-5 on weekdays, but sometimes I’ll be done earlier or have a long break in the middle, but I always have lunch and I would be able to go back for a potty break then. And weekends are always different, but I would be gone for shorter periods of time. Walks would be in the evening during the week and then we could work out a time in the morning or evening on the weekends. More than happy to keep your baby company if you are out of town and take care of whatever they need. I’m also willing to stay over and house sit if that is needed, but can also just do visits if that’s preferred. If you’re in town, but in a busy phase of life I would be able to take your dog on long walks, do enrichment activities, or take them to a dog park.

About: My heart loves your pets as mine own. Need special medical care? Extra belly rubs? A million pictures sent to you? Please tell me I’d love to meet them. I am a nurse and have a pretty flexible schedule. I work 3 days a week. Happy to work with you on what is best fitting for your family. I am happy to accommodate what your family does for care for your pet(s). I would love to have a conversation to make sure we are both comfortable and allowing the best care.
“Megan has been awesome walking with our excitable GSD! She is prompt, communicative, and friendly. I love the detailed updates and photos she shares on her walks and trust her to handle our big pup.”
“What a fantastic experience! My dog walker arrived right on time and was so attentive to my dog. She took him on a great walk and was even thoughtful enough to check his food and water bowl before she left. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her again.”
“Libby is a great sitter! She takes my dog on neighborhood walks or if time and weather permit, adventures to a nearby walking path. She's easy to communicate with and has made me feel at ease while I'm at work! Thanks, libby”
“Abbey is our regular dog walker, so this review is in reference to an ongoing commitment/arrangement. Abbey has been excellent with our elder dog. She is reliable, communicative, and trustworthy. We have had no issues or concerns. We appreciate her and would recommend her services to others!”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs and even got to foster! Experience leash-training a mid-sized dog when my parents first adopted. Also assisted in daily care and leash-training for a large Pit Bull mix. Regular pet sitter and dog walker for an older Dachshund/Chihuahua mix that doesn't play well with others. Regular house and pet sitter for two mixed house cats with lots of personality. Experience delivering medications via oral syringe as well as pills/pellets with/without food. Beyond pet sitting and walking, I'm a big fan of play time for all pets and am happy to help get there play time in and energy out! My current schedule is very flexible, especially on weekdays. Upon any changes in my long-term availability, I'll be sure to update this description. Let me know if you need more routine/long-term care. I pet-sit for others in their homes regularly and I'm also happy to come by and take your pet for a walk. I currently do not offer my own boarding for any pets.

“Allison has been great! Super friendly and helpful when scheduling, and she has great availability. This is the second time she's taken our Aussie pup on a walk to help get some energy out. Love getting the pictures of her time with him and the note she leaves about their time together. Will definitely keep using Allison”
About: Hi! My name is Elisheba, along with being a mother to 3 kids, I am also a lover of all things furry and cute. I have been caring for dogs my entire life and have owned American Bulldogs, Boerboels and Frienchies. I frequently dog sit for my friend's furry kids while they are away. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes as well as energy levels. I am a laid back person myself, but my children sure do a great job at keeping pups active and entertained. I consider myself an experienced puppy snuggler but I love going on walks and venturing to local dog parks. I understand that your dog is a member of your family and I will make sure they feel like they are a member of mine!
About: Hi there! Thanks so much you for checking out my profile ☺️ A bit about me: I recently moved to Cincy with my kitty Dany (full name: Daenerys Stormborn Targaryen). She’s a sociable and classically talkative Tortoiseshell (pictured above) and I love her to pieces! I’m a dietitian and health-tech professional by trade looking for some supplemental work while I hunt for full time position. I've grown up with dogs, cats, fish, and hamsters in my home and have had many sitting jobs for family and friends throughout the years. I promise to be the loving and reliable caretaker you're searching for to provide the best care for your pet. Past sitter-seekers have described me as dependable, attentive, and great with communication. If this sounds like what you're looking for, please don’t hesitate to message me or send a request my way! I do not currently have a full time job, so my schedule is wide open! Give me a reason to stay busy please and thanks 🙏🏻 My apartment complex is gated and I’m right next to the Wasson Trail, so your boarded pup will be going on my daily walks (as able, of course!). My home is a quiet and calm ground floor unit perfect for easy potty breaks with great windows for people watching (just ask my cat). I am tidy, especially at other folks’ homes, so you can expect a mess-free drop-in visit and/or sitting experience.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. With more than 30 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I've been surrounded by pets since I was a child. In fact, my very first job was walking neighborhood dogs when I was in middle school—and my love for caring for animals has only grown since then. I've raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood, giving me firsthand experience with house training, socialization, leash training, and the patience and consistency puppies need to thrive. My dogs are truly part of our family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also have experience caring for senior pets who require daily medications, as well as rescue dogs who may need extra patience, understanding, and a calm approach due to anxiety or special feeding routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Beyond dogs and cats, I've cared for many other animals over the years, including birds, fish, hamsters, turtles, frogs, lizards, and hermit crabs. I'm comfortable caring for a wide variety of pets and am always happy to learn about their individual needs. In my full-time career, I work in an elementary school, so I have summers off and additional some flexibility throughout the year (outside of carpooling to my kid’s sports 😉). That allows me to provide dependable, attentive care and plenty of time, love, and companionship for your furry (or feathered or scaly!) family members. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and treated like family while you're away. My schedule is very flexible this summer! Since I work at an elementary school during the school year, I have the summer months off and am available throughout the day to care for your pets. Aside from occasionally carpooling my son to camp/sports, my schedule is wide open, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, walks, companionship, or a consistent routine while you're away, I'm happy to work with your schedule to provide dependable, attentive care. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I prefer caring for dogs in their own home whenever possible, where they can remain in a familiar, comfortable environment and maintain their normal routine. I understand that changes can be stressful for some pets, and I strive to make your time away as calm and worry-free as possible. My schedule is flexible, and I'm happy to work around your dog's individual needs, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and favorite activities. I also welcome the opportunity to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand so your pet can get to know me and you can feel completely confident that they'll be in caring, capable hands.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could walk. Grew up walking stuffed animals around on a leash just to prove to my parents that I was responsible enough to own one myself. I had two dogs that both lived to 16 so my track record is good I am currently working from home three to four days a week and that allows for me to be flexible with my timing. I can leave the house, let a dog out or just give him/her some extra belly rubs I have a fenced in yard that allows your fur baby to run around freely, but within the home I love to snuggle. Your pets are allowed on furniture and in beds at this household, as long as it’s okay with you.
About: I love working with dogs and tailor my care to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or giving medication, I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I also have experience with senior dogs, so I understand the extra patience and attention they need, offering gentle walks, plenty of reassurance, and a calm, caring environment to keep them happy and healthy. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide your pet with consistent attention throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, playtime, and care whenever needed, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and loved at all times. In your home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets while keeping them on their usual routine. I make sure they’re closely supervised during outdoor time and always prioritize their safety and well-being.

“Katie was a perfect sitter for Nash! She gave him the attention and love he wanted, a great house to feel comfortable in and he almost didn’t want to leave!”
“They were amazing! My pups did not go without love. They sent pictures to update us on eating habits, play time and behaviors. I appreciated the updates and loved the fact they were dog lovers. When I dropped off the pups, they made sure they would do well in a new environment before leaving. When we returned from out of town, they were understanding of our late arrival and had the pups fed before we came. Overall, I would choose them again.”
“Jill did an amazing job with my dog. She kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. She took him on walks and kept him safe, and happy. I will definitely use her again.”
“Caleigh was great at communication both before and during our dog’s stay with her and my dog looked happy and content throughout her stay. Would recommend and use Caleigh again!”
“We love sending our dog Bratwurst to stay with Amir! Amir is always kind and communicative and is very knowledgeable about exactly what our dog needs to have a safe and happy experience. Would highly recommend Amir and we will definitely plan to work with him again!”
“Excellent stay with Jennifer and Robert! Very friendly, easy to communicate with, and felt comfortable leaving Willow with them. I will definitely be using them again.”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Courteous, competent, really helped in a pickle with our challenging puppy. Words can't express how much I appreciate his care for dog. He sent us pictures of how happy she was while we were gone and she very clearly missed him when she got back home. I would definitely ask him to host her again in the future if needed.”
“Our dog love his stay with Scott and Alycia. They were very accommodating, quick to communicate and sent us lots of pictures. William went on several walks, played tug with their dog and had a great time with them! Would recommend them to anyone!”
“Gabrielle was a great pet sitter for our dog! She was very communicative and easy to work with. She sent us pictures and let us know everything was going great! Would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Jenny and her family and dog were wonderful hosts for our dog Gretel. Gretel got walks and affection and seemed very comfortable there. A very responsible and caring host. We will be happy to have Gretel stay with them again.”
“Ronald watched my puppy over a busy holiday weekend - not a small feat! He was responsive and sent updates throughout the weekend. Highly appreciated and would definitely recommend Ronald!”
“I asked Rebecca to watch my dog for the day when our travel schedules became hectic and I couldn’t leave him at home alone for such long stretches of time. Rebecca was so accommodating and responsive, even with such a last minute request. My dog absolutely loved his day with her family, getting all the love and attention he could handle. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“Tricia was great with Edie. She was also very flexible and went above and beyond when our flight got delayed and we had to figure out additional care on the fly. Would recommend!”
“Finny is nice and tired coming home from Holly’s house - I am sure from playing with Millie nonstop. ☺️ love getting the pics of them. Thanks for watching him again, Holly!”
“We booked a drop-off time at 6am. Due to travel need, we asked to drop off about one hour earlier and Jenna allowed without hesitate. That was an early morning right after a busy July-4 evening. I really appreciate Jenna’s excellent servicing and would not hesitate recommending her.”
“Paige was great with communicating, on time for drop off and pick up and overall just a great fit for my pup. I truly feel like the universe brought her to me because both of our babies names are storm! I appreciate Paige so much and can’t wait to book her again! My baby came back home healthy and happy!”
