“Lorie took great care of our senior dog who has lots of medical needs. She is warm and compassionate and clearly loves all of the doggies as her own. She sent us regular updates and pictures while we were away. We felt like our dog was in better care with Lorie than when we have boarded him at the vet - and he was definitely more comfortable with a home environment. Thank you, Lorie!”
“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”
“Icy has a lot of anxiety when he needs to be boarded. Wendy did a great job caring for his needs. She has a beautiful home with everything required to keep a dog happy, healthy, safe and comfortable. Thank you Wendy!!”
“Samantha was a kind and caring sitter! She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on how my puppy was doing. She also has 2 small and very well behaved pups and this was great for socialization. Very happy to leave my puppy with Samantha.”
“Patchareya was an excellent sitter for my pup. She communicates regularly and provides a lot of care and affection for small dogs. If you have a small dog I would highly recommend her for your future boarding needs. I know I will!”
“Takia was very responsive and kind! We received daily updates of our pups and we were able to see that they were being treated very well. We had a hiccup with their pills but it was handled professionally and quickly. We would definitely recommend her and book again with her 💗”
“Our 12ish year old coonhound Howard just got home from his first stay with Karma for the weekend. She made sure he took all his medicine and checked in to let us know how he was doing. I felt so much better with him at her house than at a boarding facility, especially as he gets older. He loves getting all the investigative sniffs in her large fenced in yard!”
“Mel was the absolute best with our pup. She provided pics of Cali during our time away and even bathed her! Picking up a clean puppy was a real treat and far exceeded our expectations. Cali got to go on lots of walks and was completely worn out when she got home, which is quite an achievement for a lab!”
“Kathy was wonderful with our little guy! Because it was his first day/night with her, I really appreciated the updates and pictures. I know he was happy and felt so at home with Kathy!”
“Summer took great care of my anxious dog. She was patient and kind, so my girl was able to eventually relax. Summer was very responsive, and sent lots of pictures while I was away. I would hire her again.”
“Katlyn did a wonderful job watching my dog. She was quick to respond to messages, sent lots of picture updates and it was evident she truly cares about animals. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have tons of experience taking care of numerous dogs from when I babysat during high school and college years.

I have a phenomenal veterinarian that is not too far or there are plenty of veterinarians in the area for emergencies, an animal hospital opened on weekends, and a pet store about 5 minutes away. If you want your dog to be well taken care of and have fun in a safe, friendly dog environment then chose me! I'm currently a stay at home mom with family support nearby so I'll have plenty of time to take care and play with your pups/cats! I will follow all rules provided by the client and make sure every pup/cat is well taken care of. If you need me to do another small chore, just let me know!

“We cannot thank Peter and Tara enough for the amazing care they gave our pups! It was our first long trip without them and we had so much peace of mind knowing they were safe and having a blast while we were away. And all the pictures were amazing!”
“Beth & Edward were fantastic! While on a much needed vacation for a week, they boarded Watson. They gave 2-3 updates a day with pics to keep my updated on how he was doing which put me at ease as this was my first time away from my boy! Highly recommend them and will be booking again in the future!”

About: growing up with a family dog, i’ve always looked forward to our long walks. since i've moved to care for my grandma & i can’t have a pet at my current home, i’m looking to be the dedicated adventure buddy your pup deserves! i’m an avid walker who cleans up after your pet & loves exploring local parks and trails, and i’m just as comfortable handling a brisk, high-energy trek as i am a slow, 'sniff-heavy' stroll for seniors or four legged friends who love getting distracted! HOT WEATHER: for dog-friendly clients, i am able to provide outings to low stress trips to uncrowded, pet-friendly stores/facilities for stimulation and enrichment (including a potty break outside before and after, of course!) i am also happy to walk earlier/later in the day to avoid the heat as well! i also enjoy keeping pets company in home, whether its playing with toys, using lick mats, or just spending some time together! because i work evening and overnight shifts, i have guaranteed availability every morning and midday for your dog’s routine. whether you need a recurring daily walker or a same-day visit because you’re running late, i'm local and ready to jump in! my current job is closing in a few months, so i’ll be even more available for your schedule soon :) in public, i use a short-leash grip, stay hyper-aware of our surroundings without distractions like phones/technology of any kind (aside from photos, of course!), and avoid unknown dogs to keep your pup protected. i pride myself on being a trustworthy, punctual communicator, providing frequent photo updates so you’re always in the loop. i am very confident in my ability to kennel/leash pets & i consider myself well-versed in administering medication. i am keen when reading animal stress signals, ensuring your pet feels safe and understood under my care! as of early may, i am taking dog training certification courses to better my understanding and confidence in dog training :)
About: I am a lifelong pet owner with dog-walking experience of up to four dogs at a time. I have administered medications and have nothing but love for the senior pets. I also have experience with cats and small animals like hamsters and large iguanas. I will keep you informed about your pet and make sure I love them as my own! I have current availability for mornings only, between the hours of 9:00am to 12:pm (ish). That will soon increase when my school schedule ends in May. I have no problems giving reports about poo/pee, potty accidents in the home, demeanor of the pet during our time together, etc. I will have bags with me for picking up after your pup(s) on walks if needed. I have a lot of experience with dogs who don't get along with bikes, other people & dogs, and things that are encountered along our route. I work hard to develop a trusting relationship with your pet(s) and to make sure they feel loved at every visit.

About: I have been a pet owner and animal lover my entire life. I have owned dogs, cats, a bird, and fish. I have years of experience pet sitting for neighbors, family, and friends where they have relied on me to feed, walk, entertain, brush, and bathe their dogs. I enjoy getting to know and interacting with all animals and can’t wait to get to know yours! I am currently on my summer break from college, so I have a fairly flexible schedule and availability to walk, pet sit, and board your pets! I provide loving and attention care in both my home and my client’s home, by making pets feel safe and comfortable. I make sure to provide multiple walks a day and give plenty of time for play.
About: My whole life i’ve loved animals. I even wanted to work with them full time. Throughout growing up I have gotten experience with many different animals such as dogs, cats, turtles, and even lizards. I would always be thrilled when I was asked to take care of my family and friends dogs or cats. That being said, when I heard about this app I was super excited! I’d love to keep your pet entertained while you go do your thing! I do work somedays, but I have short hours and flexible schedules. I am willing and able to take care before and after my shift! I have plenty of time for playing and cuddles. I would love to play and walk your dog! I can also accommodate them in any form they need. If you would rather me crate them I can do that too! I have pets of my own. Though if your animal isn’t a fan of other animals, I can easily take mine to my brothers house for the day to accommodate your dog or cats.
About: I am a dedicated and reliable dog walker with a passion for pets and years of experience caring for all types of dogs.

I make sure that dogs retrieve the right nutrients that they will need as requested by the dogs owner. Dogs are my best friends. Safe!
“We were well pleased with Brianna's care of our cats. We have multiple cats that required a variety of things, so it was not just a simple task to accomplish. All was neat & clean, & she also took care of additional items for us. The pictures sent showed her affection for animals. We would readily use her again!”

About: Hi! I’m Maria, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I’ve dedicated years of my life to. I have over 10 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace, I understand that every pet deserves care that’s tailored specifically to them. My partner and I work together as a team, which means your pets receive twice the attention, care, and reliability. Having two experienced animal lovers allows us to be flexible with scheduling and provide consistent, dependable care for your pets, whether you’re away for the day or an extended vacation. I offer: • Dog Walking • Drop-In Visits • House Sitting • Overnight Boarding • Puppy Care • Senior Dog Care • Medication Administration (if needed) • Lots of playtime, cuddles, enrichment, and exercise! I’ve cared for everything from tiny toy breeds to giant breeds, including dogs with anxiety, high energy, special routines, and unique personalities. I also have experience with cats and other household pets, so if your family includes more than just dogs, they’re in great hands too. When your pet stays with us or we care for them in your home, they’re treated like family. We stick to their normal routine as closely as possible because we know consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether that means long walks, endless games of fetch, quiet cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, we adjust our care to what makes your pet happiest. As pet owners ourselves, we understand how difficult it can be to trust someone with a member of your family. That’s why communication is one of our top priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for. Our goal isn’t just to watch your pet. We want to become someone both you and your furry family member can trust for years to come. We’d love the opportunity to meet you and provide the same love, patience, and attention we give our own pets every single day. We can’t wait to meet your best friend! 🐾 One of us works full time, however the other stays at home and focuses on animals and etc. We’re always able to be flexible and accommodate everyone’s needs We always make sure to meet prior to bookings and if needed or wanted to I do like to send pictures and videos of your fur babies while in my care. I know everyone misses their little babies.
About: Since being retired, I have plenty of time to help dog owners. I’m available to board, sit or walk your dog. Whatever I can do to help. I’m retired so I have the time. It helps pass the time. I lost my fur baby a few years ago after having him for 12 years. I have a fenced in yard and no current animals so each of the animals will have my undivided attention. I can gladly take care of them.
About: I offer a premium pet sitting/walking experience because of my hands on experience in many different dog environments. I have trained service dogs through 4 Paws for Ability, worked in a busy dog daycare, volunteered in shelters, and competed in agility. These experiences help me understand behavior, manage different energy levels, and support dogs with unique needs. I am dependable, organized, and attentive to every detail of your dog’s routine. I also make communication a priority and provide frequent updates, photos, and notes so you always feel connected to your dog while you are away. If you choose to trust me with your dog, you can have complete peace of mind knowing they are in capable and caring hands. I work remotely so I am able to offer drop in and dog walking services weekdays before 8:45 AM, during my lunch break most days, and after 4:30 PM. I also have availability most weekends. For select dogs, I may consider overnight or weekday daycare in my own home on a case-by-case basis, dependent on my own dogs getting along with yours and the behavior of your dog(s) - must be house trained and non-destructive. I would only take dog(s) from ONE client in home at a time (in addition to my own two dogs). Please reach out to discuss this further. The safety and health of your pets is my number one priority. From shifting to indoor activities on days when the temperature is dangerously hot to double checking that the harness/collar is fitted properly before going outside, I do everything in my power to keep your dogs happy and healthy. Additionally, positive reinforcement is the foundation of how I train and interact with animals. I use it with my own dogs and with the service dogs I’ve helped train, and I’m happy to continue that approach with your pets. This means no yelling, “punishing”, or other harsh corrective methods will be used.
About: I have been a pet owner for about four years now and truly have a passion for taking care of dogs and giving them freedom to have fun and be themselves. I work at night time so usually when I get up in the day, I have the most energy and that’s when I’m totally available for the time and attention for the love of dogs. I have a closed in gated fence, which allows the pets to have access to roam around handedly at Will I have a true passion for taking care of dogs.
“Susan was great with Zeke. She even suggested a quick meet up the day before she has to meet my dog to make sure that my dog was OK with her dog. Excellent care. Thank you so much.”
“Takia was amazing with my pup. She sent update pictures and kept me updated on how well he was doing. He absolutely loved the other little pup she was watching.”
“Bean loved her time here and I loved getting pictures/videos/updates! We booked again immediately. ☺️ It was all good vibes from beginning to end and Bean slept sooooooo well when she got home. Thanks and see you again soon!”

“Austin watched Bentley on such short notice while we were in town for a short visit and it was the best decision of the weekend! He took such great care of our big dog and had our minds at ease the whole day. Sent plenty of updates and photos. I highly recommend Austin to anyone in need of doggy day care. Thank you again!”
About: Hi, I’m Nicole — a lifelong animal lover and self‑proclaimed helicopter dog parent. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. My babies are in heaven now so I’ve joined rover as a pet sitter. **I kindly request if you’d like to book me, please have your rover profile filled out and photos uploaded.** I’ve spent the last decade-plus loving and supporting two very different pups with very different needs. My 16‑year‑old baby boy chihuahua Harley taught me everything about caring for a truly high‑maintenance senior dog. From medications and special feeding routines to extra snuggles, slow walks, and getting bossed around. ;) I also shared my life with my 11 year old Labrador-baby girl Lexi- who recently passed away from cancer on 5/19. Navigating that journey with her taught me deep compassion, vigilance, and emotional care. I became an expert in monitoring comfort levels, adjusting daily routines, and making every moment count. These experiences shaped the way I care for every dog who comes into my home: with attentiveness, understanding, and the same level of devotion I have given my own. • I treat your dog the way I treat mine — like family. • I am extremely attentive and present. If your pup needs something, I’m there. • Senior dogs and high‑maintenance fur babies are welcome. I get them. • Dogs are absolutely allowed on furniture — cuddles are encouraged here. • We don’t have a fence, but I’m a safety‑first sitter. I leash dogs for every potty break and stay right with them. • Because I work from home, your dog will rarely be left alone. • My home is calm, cozy, and dog friendly. I call myself a helicopter dog parent because I am very cautious- I am checking the pavement temp before walks, we aren’t walking on lawns that have chemical lawn treatment flags, I have a car hammock and dog seatbelt for rides, if I run an errand the dryer won’t be on, etc. Why I Do This I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone. They’re your heart. Your family. Your little shadow. I’ve been in your shoes many times, I’ve used Rover in the past and my goal is to give you that same peace of mind I always looked for — knowing your pup is safe, loved, and truly understood. On weekdays I go to the gym early in the morning and telework daily in my private office with a comfy dog friendly couch. Sometimes I am home on the weekends and sometimes not so it depends on when you need care. If you’re unsure just message me and I can see if I am free. :) if your dog can join us on the boat or on camping trips I can be more flexible with you. Our non-smoking home is pet friendly and I have a 12 year old daughter who loves animals. I do not have any animals in my home. For potty breaks your pet would be leashed.
“Stephanie does amazing with my two dogs, including one being a young puppy! She is very kind and communicates often with many pictures. Definitely recommend Stephanie!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I grew up with a German Shephard then my family got a small maltise/bishon when I was a teenager. My family currently has a 5 year old German Shephard (Jax) and a 6 year old cat (Scout). I have two teenagers that also share the same love for animals. Jax is very friendly and gets along with other dogs but he is big. I am available for dog walking, check ins or boarding. Please reach out if you have any questions. I will treat your pet like they are my own! I currently work from home Mon-Fri and am available to take short walks throughout the day or go out for potty breaks as needed. I don’t have a fence at this time but we are getting one this summer. I will take your pet out on a leash until then.
“Pogo had his very first day at daycare with Flora, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! He seemed so at home there as he dove right into the fun activities Flora had planned. It was such a joy to see him having an amazing time! The warm welcome we received was simply amazing. Flora really took the time to understand Pogo’s schedule, which made everything go so smoothly. Knowing he was in such great hands was incredibly reassuring. Flora was just a quick call or text away if we had any questions. As a sweet touch, she left us a handwritten note about Pogo’s day with her, which really put our minds at ease and showed us how much fun he had and the care she took of him. We can’t wait to book with Flora again in the future!”

About: Update June 1, 2026. I have taken a part-time job and right now I can only accept cat drop in requests . Unfortunately I can’t commit to dog walking because of this part-time job unless it’s on the weekend. I am answering as a pet owner. I am hoping to start working as a pet sitter/dog walker soon. As a kid we had birds and hamsters, then graduated to cats when I was about 14. As a young adult I usually had up to 4 cats at the same time. When my kids were in high school, my husband introduced me to dogs by re-homing a dog named Lucy. We still have her. I had never had dogs before but I am so glad I did not say NO to hubby at the time. We have 2 dogs now but no cats. I do miss having cats and hope to again some day. I left my job of 34 years and would love to do something I have been wanting to do for a long time but never got around to. I am happy to care for cats too! At my house we have invisible fence to keep the dogs from leaving the yard, though our younger dog needs to be on a long lead because he is so excitable and cannot always be trusted to stay in the yard. We also have invisible fence inside to keep both dogs out of the kitchen.
About: I live in an apartment at Kent State and am back and forth from Solon in the summer! My dog at my parents home is very reactive and we have been with many trainers to calm him down. I have much experience with dogs like him and learned from trainers. I have sat for various owners over the last few years and always enjoy keeping animals company! I am a college student! I live in a pet friendly apartment with a nice outside area. I have a very open schedule and would be open to helping anyone out at any time! I always make sure to have the pet's water and food stalked up and clean up the surrounding areas for the owner. I always make sure to leave the space looking better than when I arrived. I cannot house pets at my home due to my reactive animal but I am 100% willing to come to you!
About: I’ve provided care for animals since I was a young child. Successfully completed a basic dog training course at Alaska SPCA in 2016.

About: I've been a caregiver for all types if animals my entire life. Helping my aunt on her farm, to having personal furry companions at home to care for. As an adult I now have my own dog that get lots of love and training. I often pet sit for family and friends as they know they can have total trust in me to not only take their pets to the bathroom and feed them, but also to walk, play, train, and love them. I am available immediately! Looking forward to getting to know you and your pets needs. Very flexible open schedule! Not the best early bird in the winter, but summer is a different story and I would be willing to get up the same time as the sun (: I have a yard with long runners attached to my porch so my dog has the ability to run and play freely without worry of running too far off. I never leave the dogs unattended. I also provide special needs for the home as well as pets, ( light cleaning) always leaving your home the way I found it OR BETTER.

About: When it’s time to go outside it’s time. Clean up areas where the pet(s) have pooped @. Please make sure they are trained with handling strangers. Thank you ! Currently, I am currently Unemployed. I have a lot of time for pet care services. Just a American putting effort in the American Dream for myself. Since I will take them out to poop, pee & food I’m going to be diligent on that note ! Close & lock doors is a must !
“Katie was incredible, as always. Great communication, great with my dog… super reliable. I never have to worry about things when she is scheduled to come over. Highly recommend Katie!”

About: Hi! I’ve been a dog lover my whole life and have rescued many dogs over the years. I also grew up with dogs during my childhood. The last six we’ve owned have been rescues. I'm looking for part-time work doing some type of care for other's dogs, whether it be caring for them in their own home while the family is on vacation or letting them out during the day while the owner works. I'm available most days for overnight stays (based on availability) and most days for walks and drop-in visits, if they need to be let out or just played with for a while. I now own two small dogs. They are a Cavachon that we got at the age of 8 weeks and a Yorkie mix we adopted when he was 3. The Cavachon’s name is Cooper and in 2025 he turned 4. He was a breeder surrender because he wasn’t “perfect,” meaning he was born without his right front paw. He gets around fine and loves other dogs and people. The second little guy is Boomer, a Yorkie mix who is 4 now. They are both dog and people friendly. I'm hoping to share my love for dogs with others who need help caring for theirs. I’m very allergic to cats so I can’t help with them. Small dogs only. I have experience giving medications and also giving insulin shots, because one of my dogs was diabetic. Thanks and I hope you’ll consider me for your dog’s care. We are retired and I do dog sitting and walking part-time for extra money. Sometimes my husband comes along too. My schedule is pretty open so I can work with you for what’s best for your pups. I’m open to whatever your pets need-walking, playing, letting out to potty, feeding, cuddling or giving medication. Only the best care for your fur babies.
About: I have been a pet owner and animal lover my entire life. I have owned dogs, cats, a bird, and fish. I have years of experience pet sitting for neighbors, family, and friends where they have relied on me to feed, walk, entertain, brush, and bathe their dogs. I enjoy getting to know and interacting with all animals and can’t wait to get to know yours! I am currently on my summer break from college, so I have a fairly flexible schedule and availability to walk, pet sit, and board your pets! I provide loving and attention care in both my home and my client’s home, by making pets feel safe and comfortable. I make sure to provide multiple walks a day and give plenty of time for play.
“Dasha was awesome! She texted me updates throughout Wilma's walk/visit and even brought in our packages from our front porch. She followed all of the directions we left to a T, but most importantly she took great care of our dog and made her long day alone less lonely. We will definitely use her again. Wilma had a great time with Dasha!”
About: I have tons of experience taking care of numerous dogs from when I babysat during high school and college years. I currently have a 10 year old bichon frise named Bentley, who is updated on all of his shots and am very knowledgeable in training, walking, feeding, health, and playing with dogs. I am currently a stay at home mom to a 4 and 6 year old and have a pretty flexible schedule. My husband Landon has had dogs all his life and would be around if any emergencies arise. I have a fenced in backyard, which is in a nice, suburban neighborhood with lots of sidewalks, grass, and amazing parks nearby for me to walk the dogs. I have a phenomenal veterinarian that is not too far or there are plenty of veterinarians in the area for emergencies, an animal hospital opened on weekends, and a pet store about 5 minutes away. If you want your dog to be well taken care of and have fun in a safe, friendly dog environment then chose me! I'm currently a stay at home mom with family support nearby so I'll have plenty of time to take care and play with your pups/cats! I will follow all rules provided by the client and make sure every pup/cat is well taken care of. If you need me to do another small chore, just let me know!

“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”
“Takia was very responsive and kind! We received daily updates of our pups and we were able to see that they were being treated very well. We had a hiccup with their pills but it was handled professionally and quickly. We would definitely recommend her and book again with her 💗”
“Our 12ish year old coonhound Howard just got home from his first stay with Karma for the weekend. She made sure he took all his medicine and checked in to let us know how he was doing. I felt so much better with him at her house than at a boarding facility, especially as he gets older. He loves getting all the investigative sniffs in her large fenced in yard!”
“Katlyn did a wonderful job watching my dog. She was quick to respond to messages, sent lots of picture updates and it was evident she truly cares about animals. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have a variety of pet experience. Most notably with dogs, I have fostered over 13 dogs in the last several years through Kane's Mission. I am sure to give your dog personalized attention and love and care they deserve! We live in a great walkable community in Shaker Heights. We are happy to take your dog on walks and visits to the park, so they can have a nice vacation too! I can currently adapt to most pet care schedules. I have a flexible schedule from home, and I am here to offer a seamless transition. I have fenced in yard with room to romp around, and I am located in a great walking community with a park nearby. I can also come to you reliably to let your dog out and given home play, social, and exercise time.
“We cannot thank Peter and Tara enough for the amazing care they gave our pups! It was our first long trip without them and we had so much peace of mind knowing they were safe and having a blast while we were away. And all the pictures were amazing!”
“Alayna was super kind and responsive. Sent lots of pictures of my pup while I was gone! My dog just ran right into her house when I dropped her off, so I knew it was going to go well. I plan to utilize her services in the future!”

“Angel did a great job caring for our dog Kawaii. It was our 1st time leaving her overnight anywhere and Angel put our mind at ease. She sent pictures and updates everyday without us even requesting. She took the time to ask questions about her and even let us do a meet and greet. Angel was very professional and you can tell she loves animals!! In the future I will definitely be asking Angel to care for Kawaii again.”
“Cathy took wonderful care of our dog while we were away for 5 days. I can’t say enough good things about her. She was easy to communicate with, she sent photos everyday, and checked in so we knew all was well with our boy. If you’re looking for a friendly and reliable sitter I’d highly recommend Cathy!”
“Angela was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our dog! From the moment we met her, we could tell she genuinely cares about animals. She was attentive, responsible, and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy and well cared for when we returned. Angela followed all of our instructions perfectly, including feeding instructions and walks. We will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
“Great Sitter, and person, did an amazing job at communicating, and sending pictures, as well as giving Onyx his medicine. 10/10 recommend, would definitely book again”
“Winston had the best stay! This was my first time ever leaving him, and I was understandably nervous, but I felt completely at ease from the start. There was constant communication throughout his stay, with updates that made me feel confident he was in great hands. He was truly treated like part of their family, not just a dog they were watching. I’m so grateful for the care, attention, and love they showed Winston, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Lillian is for sure a dog whisperer! She sent me a update each day with pictures. Blondie remembered her from our meet and greet! I love the experience! I will return!!”
“Colleen was absolutely wonderful! She has a calm demeanor and was so loving to my Poppy while away for a week. I received daily updates and loved seeing through photos the bond Poppy and her lab, Peaches, developed. In fact, tonight a yellow lab appeared on the TV in an ad and Poppy went wild barking. I think she already misses her new friend and it has at even been 24 hours. I will most certainly use Colleen for future boarding.”
