“Avery took great care of Teddy when I went out of town and I never had to worried about him as I knew he was in great care. She was very flexible when I had a last minute scheduled change which I really appreciated. Teddy would love to go back anytime we need a sitter! Thank you!”
“This is our first time using rover and I can’t recommend Kimberely enough. She kept us updated with videos and pictures. I could tell how much she loved our dog. She is so sweet and we will absolutely use her again.”
“Ronald and his family could not have been better sitters for our 2 labs. They were so thoughtful and provided a loving home for our pups while we were away. I will definitely continue to book Ronald on future trips.”
“Paige, Stephen and family cared for our dog, Duncan, so well! He became part of their family while we were gone and I could tell that Duncan was thriving while with them. He especially loved playing with their kids which helped keep his sense of normalcy compared to our home! Would definitely recommend this family to anyone :)”
“Megan and David were great with my frenchie! Their dog, Harvey, had a blast with my dog as well and I was able to go on vacation with peace of mind knowing that she was well cared for. We will book again!”
“Rebecca cared for our two Labs for 17 days while we were out of the country. They were clearly in great hands - we got a daily update (with photos), they got lots of exercise and attention, she capably navigated one of our dog’s anxiety issues, and she quickly communicated any questions or concerns. Our confidence in her allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation instead of stressing about their care.”
“My two labs love spending the day at Tricia’s. I was so grateful when she agreed to board them over the holiday weekend. They had a great time, as usual; and I was able to enjoy my trip worry-free.”
“Oscar enjoyed his stay and came home perfectly relaxed from a stress free time away from home. We were very pleased with the care he received from this family!”
“Such a great sitter!!! Nancy was fantastic with our senior pupp, Domino. Her communication was fantastic, and he kept us fully updated with pictures during his stay. We look forward to booking Nancy to care for Domi during our future travels!”
“Jill was amazing with my dogs. She was able to help with only hours notice, and far exceeded our expectations. She provided daily updates, and made the separation easier for us as we moved into our new home. I completely recommend her and will use her again any time I need to leave town.”
“She took such good care of our dog Buddy. Very thorough and conscientious with their diet medications and especially dogs who are older. We would definitely use her again.”
“Kiersten provided a happy, loving, and relaxed environment for our doggo who is often anxious in boarding situations. Boo had a wonderful time playing with her other dogs and Kiersten took great care of her!! Will definitely use Kiersten again!”
“Elisheba and her family took Ember in and were very kind. Thank you for the hospitality and the great care at a last minute notice. Ember loved the yard and enjoyed having extra people to play with her, it takes a village!”

“Daniela took good care of our kitty Parker, being very careful to keep him safe from any dogging interactions and mindful of his eating. She sent us pic and video updates every day and was promptly responsive to my inquires as to how Parker was doing. She's a "cat person" who gets how stressful it is to leave your furry in some else's care. I highly recommend her!”
“Christine was super helpful and lovely to work with. Biscuit really loved her and sent lots of pictures while i was away making my first time away with her as pleasant as it could be. thank you!!”
“Great experience! Our cats were well cared for, and we got plenty of photo updates while we were away. Excellent service and great communication. Highly recommend Michelle!”
“Corey was great. She kept us informed about our kitten/cat while we were away over Thanksgiving, and everything was in great shape when we got home. We have a Houdini cat who can scoot out of the door quicker than anything, but she outsmarted him, saving him from coyotes who regularly dine on little cats in our neighborhood.”
“Laura did an amazing job taking care of our dog, cat, and kitten while we were away. She provided detailed updates with photos every day, was always responsive and available whenever we had questions, and clearly treated our pets with genuine care and attention. We came home to three happy, relaxed pets, which gave us great peace of mind throughout our trip. We highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter, and we will definitely book with her again!”
About: I'm well-versed in cat behavior, and have yet to meet a cat I can't be friends with! I'm experienced with shy cats, cats who over-stimulate easily, and cats who may not immediately warm up to everyone. I make sure the cat is leading every interaction!
“Mengshu and Thomas were fabulous to work with! They dropped in on my cats over the weekend. They paid extra attention to them, took a ton of photos, and even brought a toy over one day. I could definitely tell from the photos that the cats had warmed up to them very quickly. I am looking forward to booking with them for our next travels. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Sara was great with our shy cat. She was punctual and reliable for our long stay away from home, and provided regular updates and pictures. We will be booking with Sara again!”
“Brianna was so good with my dogs! She played with them and loved on they as if they were her own. I have Australian Shepherds and they can be very enthusiastic and energetic, she worked well with their temperament. She was very responsive and accommodating and would love to have her help us out again!”
“Hope C. is so great! She was responsible, and responsive while watching our two cats. Hope was great with our cats, and keeping them nourished! I would absolutely ask Hope C. to watch our cats again!”
“Kelly did an incredible job taking care of our babies. We felt good leaving them in her hands. She sent the cutest pictures and was consistent with her check in times. We would use her again 100 times!”
About: I’m a dependable, caring pet lover who treats every dog like family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to build trust and make each walk a positive experience. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, including energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise, as well as senior dogs who may prefer a slower, more relaxed pace. I’m attentive to body language and behavior and prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort at all times. Whether your dog needs an active walk, some extra exercise and playtime, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide dependable care and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash preferences, and other special needs. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in caring, responsible hands while you’re away. I'm currently in a remote position making my scheduling flexible, thus my schedule is open all 7 days throughout the week. I look forward to hearing what you need! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and respect while making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. For walks, I use safe leash-handling practices and stay attentive to my surroundings, other animals, traffic, and anything that could make a pet uncomfortable or unsafe. I never rush a dog and adjust the pace and length of the walk based on their age, energy level, and individual needs. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. I’m respectful of your home, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet has access to fresh water and anything else you’ve provided for their care. I’ll keep you updated throughout the visit and communicate promptly if I notice anything unusual with your pet. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being cared for as if they were my own.
“Katie was great with our two cats while we were away on vacation. I was worried about leaving them alone, since both are young and one is particularly sensitive to strangers and changes of routine. They both loved Katie! Katie took the time to not only feed and empty the litter box, but also to spoil with treats and play. We loved getting the daily postcard with photos. We will definitely hire Katie again!”

About: What sets us apart is the genuine care and experience we bring to every dog we welcome into our home. My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and before having our daughter, we fostered dogs, which gave us experience with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and needs. We currently have a friendly 2-year-old lab mix, so we’re very familiar with maintaining routines, exercise needs, and positive reinforcement. One of our biggest strengths is working with anxious or shy dogs—we’re patient, attentive, and take the time to build trust at each dog’s pace so they feel safe and comfortable. We treat every dog like part of our family and strive to create a calm, loving environment where they can relax and be themselves. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday. Your dog will have consistent companionship throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods. During the day, dogs are free to relax, play, and interact with our friendly 2-year-old lab mix. We also incorporate daily walks and outdoor playtime (weather permitting), along with plenty of attention, affection, and structured routine. Because I’m home, I’m able to closely monitor each dog’s needs and adjust care to ensure they feel comfortable, engaged, and right at home. Then when my husband and daughter are not in work or school they will help care for your dogs and play with them. In our home, we strive to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every dog in our care. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise in a secure space. Inside, dogs are treated like part of the family—free to relax, play, and enjoy a calm, structured routine. We can accommodate crate training if your dog is used to it or needs a safe space while we’re briefly away from home. We pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra playtime, a quieter environment, or a consistent routine, so they feel secure and at home during their stay.
“Rebecca and her husband were wonderful! I immediately felt comfortable in there home! Jackz our dog is blind and Rebecca was not only willing but happy to help us and Jackz out!”
About: Hey there! I'm Hope. I grew up taking care of a herd of 4H show bunnies and pet sitting the various animals around my neighborhood, but dogs are by far my favorite! I worked at a dog kennel for 3 years as a caretaker and eventually manager. I petsat with Rover full time for about 6 months but am now transitioning to a full time job and will only be accepting new dog boarding reservations. I'm married to my high school sweetheart and currently studying psychology at UC. We live in Madisonville with our playful puppies and grumpy senior bunny. Someone is home at all times, our yard in fully fenced in, as well as we have tons of toys, chewies, and puppy shenanigans to keep your dog entertained! We’re available weekends and holidays. I'd be happy to take care of any other pets you have (cats, birds, rodents, fish, etc.) at no additional charge. I have a lot of experience handling and caring for small & exotic animals, as well as certain farm animals. I have experience with special needs dogs, giving very specific care and/or administering medications(oral, topical, insulin). Thank you for your consideration!
About: We have watched many pets over the years and are finally bringing our love to the masses. :) We truly love all animals (every where we have lived animals indoor/outdoor just flock to us it seems ha). We give them the care they deserve and treat every last one as if it were our own personal pet. We have also had several pets through the years that needed medical attention daily (generally giving medication) and understand the importance of maintaining medicine/medical care in a very timely manner. If you are looking for the best care for your pet, look no further this family of pet lovers is where its at. We took a little time off to focus on some other things but we are back at it and ready to love and care for your pet better than anyone on this app 😀♥️ (we might be biased). I work from home full time so I am here almost 24 hrs/day to care for your lovely pet. On the weekends we come and go for short periods of time but generally we are home 80% of the weekend at least. We welcome long and short term pet stays, we just love pets. I have kids who "LOVE" to entertain/give attention to pets and try to teach them new tricks. I have several nearby dog parks, and 1 dog of my own. I have a Black Lab/Great Dane mix about 5 yrs old. He loves having other pets around after he get his sniffs in :)
About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets. I love all fur babies and consider it a privilege to care for them. I will play with them and snuggle them and make sure they are well cared for.💕 I am a homemaker with a very flexible schedule and I have plenty of time to devote to the pets who I am caring for. I will give your pet lots of love and attention. I will follow any special instructions for your pet as you desire. I also have a wonderful fenced in backyard for extra fun playtime if they are staying at my house.
About: I am a huge animal lover! I currently have an 12 year old Goldendoodle named Stella. I have had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine ever being without one! I love taking Stella to dog parks, going for walks, or hanging out around town. I would love to do the same with any dog that I would be watching! Stella also loves to be around other dogs and has never been aggressive in any way. I would be happy to accommodate any special needs your fur baby may have! I do have my 3 year old son and 5 month old daughter in the home as well, so the pups will need to be kid friendly! We now live in the Eastgate area, so if you have been a previous client, the address has changed! I am happy to answer any questions you may have! I am currently working from home 2 days a week and in office three days. I am completely free on weekends as well and most holidays. I have a fully fenced in yard and lots of fun toys! Stella loves to play with other dogs. She is 12, but still has her puppy spirit!
“Ryan was wonderful with my two dachshunds. Boarded them during the day while we had workers installing new carpet. Sent pics and videos so I had no worries. They came home tired and happy. Would hire Ryan again.”
“Lisa and John were great! It was a very last-minute booking and they were incredibly accommodating. I felt very comfortable from the jump leaving Lola with them. They helped her get adjusted and she came home absolutely wiped! I will definitely be booking again.”
About: We've had dogs our whole lives and love the joy they bring us. We've been pet sitting on and off for the last 3 years and would love the chance to take care of your family member! Jathan works from home every day and Dani's office is dog-friendly and we have some flexibility between the two of us to both do work from home days. If your pup absolutely has to have someone there at all times or has medication needs, we can also rearrange schedules to have both of us work from home, or bring them along to the office! We have a patio dog door, allowing dogs to spend time inside if they wish or to let themselves outside to sunbathe, chase squirrels or burn off any energy if home alone. Our home has a large, fully fenced backyard that everyone always has access to. In the summer we try to spend a lot of time back there relaxing, chasing bubbles and throwing the ball. We do have a hairless cat who typically stays in my sister's bedroom under the blankets. We make sure she has her safe space by not allowing even our dogs free access to her room and when we have new doggie friends, we typically put up an extra gate in the hall just to make sure everyone has their space.
“Susan was very helpful with both our meet and greet and the daycare. We were able to meet the house dog gang and see that Mandy was able to socialize and play. She came home happy and tired.”
About: Aloha! I want to help you and your family member (dog/pets) feel less stressed about being away from each other! I noticed that every time I used a kennel service for our fur baby, our dog would get so scared, sick, stress shed, nervous/anxiety, she would not eat, different times she caught kennel cough (which meant more vet bills), and our dog was definitely unhappy with the small kennel space surrounded by other upset loud barking pups/dogs/animals! I believe I can help your dog/pet feel loved, safe, comfortable, fed, clean, exercised, washed (optional), fun/waggy tails, like our family when you are away. My name is Michelle. I love animals! We have a small dog, bunny and fish! I used to volunteer at SPCA and Paw-sitive (Non profit, walk, groom, and feed stray dogs until they got adopted). I have housesit/housesat and dogsit/catsit/ bird and turtles-sat for friends and was suggested to extend my love on ROVER! (Side note: My husband goes to work during the day.I recently changed our schedule to homeschooling my 3 yr old. My 2 kids are used to me caring, playing, and walking other dogs. They loves animals as well. We all have experience caring for animals, see pictures). I have went out of the way to teach , show and guide my children to be gentle, slow approaching/no sudden movements, no chasing, be responsible, ask before petting, and to be aware around animals. I want to help other families feel comfortable and confident to leave their pet with me. We have our Covid shots and boosters. I am home everyday (except 3-4hours out of the house now and then for groceries , gym, or friends farm, or kids play dates). I keep my distance from crowds, we sanitize, and wash our hands frequently. I clean the house and wipe everything all the time. We got a new Hoover carpet wash, and our dog is up to date with shots! Your pet is safe and will be treated like royalty, pampered, loved like our pup/family! I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too, if you like. Your dog/cat/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I have owned dogs most my life (had my first pup with the responsibilities at 6 years old, and owned/fostered animals on and off for about 34 years) …cared for puppies, adults and senior dogs such as pit bulls, Pekingese, Shih Tzu , mini pincher Dobermans ,then fostered a German Shepard, a black pup Labradors, also taken cared of a Golden Retrievers, a Pitbull, poodles, bulldogs, Soft- wheat Terriers, birds, hamsters, turtles, a class pet guinea pig, and cared for friends cats too (see photos). (Yes, I have a small dog but our house is big enough to have another dog/cat/pet around . I can gate, and keep my dog separate if need) Your pet will be taken out for a run or walk at least 4x a day (usually 4-9 times with pictures)! Schedule: I take your/our dog out first thing in the morning, break, lunch, then around 3-4pm, around/after dinner time, and right before bedtime too ( update you with photos)! I will spend time with your dog/cat/pet. I will sit with, read to, massage, clean, comb, feed and pet (constantly check on, if they don’t want to be disturbed)! Even while I read to my kids, homeschool or while we watch tv at night. And my dog will be gated, separated, away from your dog/pet when we are out and when requested. I left my 911 emergency call taking position to be a stay at home mother. I would love to care for, walk, play, cuddle with your dog and take your dog to the park with us too ! *** ONLY DOGS UNDER 35lbs at this time. Thank you*** I have a lot of room, space, toys, pillows, blankets for your pup/dog/cat/pet (separated away from our dog), open concept spacious house, and animal-friendly neighborhood. I live in a cul-de-sac with extremely caring sweet neighbors that know me/us. Several families around us have animals of their own and I know most dogs have been trained or gone thru training as well as ours. I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too if you like. Your dog/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I will keep your dog/pet on a leash every time we go outside, so they don't go missing or let other dogs bother them ***Off leash free to run roam inside the house ***! Our dog is up to date with all shots, vet visits, and takes medication for tick/flee, heart worms. We give our dog a shower once every other week and when she gets muddy. I can help clean your dog/pet too, let us know!
“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.”
“We enjoyed meeting Jonathan! We left Scotty with him while we attended a concert. He is quick to respond to texts and we appreciated his flexibility around not knowing exactly when we could get back. We would happily use Jonathan again to care for our dogs!”
“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”
“This will be the third week in a row that my Roxxie will be attending doggy day care with her two new dog friends in Nancy’s home. It’s so amazing that I can go to work and not have to worry at all if my dogs being well cared for. Nancy is the best!”
“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!”

About: I spent my entire life around animals. I grew up with an Australian Shepherd, who lived to be 18. Not long after that, my family adopted a puppy, and later two cats. I helped to train the puppy, I introduced the cats, and today they still thrive. Theoughout my childhood/teens, I learned about and cared for many-a-creature. Guinea pigs, rats, a hamster, sugar gliders, a hedgehog, and even a dove! My passion for animals has only grown. When I moved away, it was lonely, and I was quick to adopt a kitten. He's almost 6 now! My pets are family, and yours are too. I will always care for a pet as if it were my own! I am currently working from home as a digital artist & jewelry maker, so I am able to set my own schedule and adapt as needed. I currently don't offer visits/walks on weekends, but this might change. Consider me a perfect pick for your pet while you're away during the work week! Whatever you need! I am able to clean litter boxes, crate dogs, play in the yard with your pups, or inside with toys if that's preferred! I am also familiar with Kongs & other enrichment toys. Or if your buddy just needs a pet and a cuddle, I'm here for that too! I can also administer most oral medications. Please reach out with any questions!!

“Dave is fabulous! He's a personable guy, who was wonderful to my dog. And, he showed up on time, every time, regardless of the weather.

I have housesit/housesat and dogsit/catsit/ bird and turtles-sat for friends and was suggested to extend my love on ROVER! (Side note: My husband goes to work during the day.I recently changed our schedule to homeschooling my 3 yr old. My 2 kids are used to me caring, playing, and walking other dogs. They loves animals as well. We all have experience caring for animals, see pictures). I have went out of the way to teach , show and guide my children to be gentle, slow approaching/no sudden movements, no chasing, be responsible, ask before petting, and to be aware around animals. I want to help other families feel comfortable and confident to leave their pet with me. We have our Covid shots and boosters. I am home everyday (except 3-4hours out of the house now and then for groceries , gym, or friends farm, or kids play dates). I keep my distance from crowds, we sanitize, and wash our hands frequently. I clean the house and wipe everything all the time. We got a new Hoover carpet wash, and our dog is up to date with shots! Your pet is safe and will be treated like royalty, pampered, loved like our pup/family! I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too, if you like. Your dog/cat/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I have owned dogs most my life (had my first pup with the responsibilities at 6 years old, and owned/fostered animals on and off for about 34 years) …cared for puppies, adults and senior dogs such as pit bulls, Pekingese, Shih Tzu , mini pincher Dobermans ,then fostered a German Shepard, a black pup Labradors, also taken cared of a Golden Retrievers, a Pitbull, poodles, bulldogs, Soft- wheat Terriers, birds, hamsters, turtles, a class pet guinea pig, and cared for friends cats too (see photos). (Yes, I have a small dog but our house is big enough to have another dog/cat/pet around . I can gate, and keep my dog separate if need) Your pet will be taken out for a run or walk at least 4x a day (usually 4-9 times with pictures)! Schedule: I take your/our dog out first thing in the morning, break, lunch, then around 3-4pm, around/after dinner time, and right before bedtime too ( update you with photos)! I will spend time with your dog/cat/pet. I will sit with, read to, massage, clean, comb, feed and pet (constantly check on, if they don’t want to be disturbed)! Even while I read to my kids, homeschool or while we watch tv at night. And my dog will be gated, separated, away from your dog/pet when we are out and when requested. I left my 911 emergency call taking position to be a stay at home mother. I would love to care for, walk, play, cuddle with your dog and take your dog to the park with us too ! *** ONLY DOGS UNDER 35lbs at this time. Thank you*** I have a lot of room, space, toys, pillows, blankets for your pup/dog/cat/pet (separated away from our dog), open concept spacious house, and animal-friendly neighborhood. I live in a cul-de-sac with extremely caring sweet neighbors that know me/us. Several families around us have animals of their own and I know most dogs have been trained or gone thru training as well as ours. I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too if you like. Your dog/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I will keep your dog/pet on a leash every time we go outside, so they don't go missing or let other dogs bother them ***Off leash free to run roam inside the house ***! Our dog is up to date with all shots, vet visits, and takes medication for tick/flee, heart worms. We give our dog a shower once every other week and when she gets muddy. I can help clean your dog/pet too, let us know!

“Avery took great care of Teddy when I went out of town and I never had to worried about him as I knew he was in great care. She was very flexible when I had a last minute scheduled change which I really appreciated. Teddy would love to go back anytime we need a sitter! Thank you!”
“Ronald and his family could not have been better sitters for our 2 labs. They were so thoughtful and provided a loving home for our pups while we were away. I will definitely continue to book Ronald on future trips.”
“My pup seemed to have a great time and came home tired and happy! Stephanie sent us daily pictures, which meant a lot to us, and she was easily available for communication. We would definitely board with her again!”
“Paige, Stephen and family cared for our dog, Duncan, so well! He became part of their family while we were gone and I could tell that Duncan was thriving while with them. He especially loved playing with their kids which helped keep his sense of normalcy compared to our home! Would definitely recommend this family to anyone :)”
“Megan and David were great with my frenchie! Their dog, Harvey, had a blast with my dog as well and I was able to go on vacation with peace of mind knowing that she was well cared for. We will book again!”
“A dream team family took our 16 mos, never left before, Moby, in for the Christmas holiday week. Rachel H., from the get-go, giving us a peek at drop off-nothing, but loving, professional, positivity! It was as if he had a comfy, cozy winter ski lodge retreat brimming with guys just like him. To the stars rating in expert care-all health & happiness concerns covered 100 pct. Looking for excuses to let him savor this beautiful situation again.”
“Rebecca cared for our two Labs for 17 days while we were out of the country. They were clearly in great hands - we got a daily update (with photos), they got lots of exercise and attention, she capably navigated one of our dog’s anxiety issues, and she quickly communicated any questions or concerns. Our confidence in her allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation instead of stressing about their care.”
“My two labs love spending the day at Tricia’s. I was so grateful when she agreed to board them over the holiday weekend. They had a great time, as usual; and I was able to enjoy my trip worry-free.”
“Jill was amazing with my dogs. She was able to help with only hours notice, and far exceeded our expectations. She provided daily updates, and made the separation easier for us as we moved into our new home. I completely recommend her and will use her again any time I need to leave town.”
“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”
“Chrissy and her family loved on our Mo so well while my husband and I were away on a vacation. It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family, so we were nervous and she assured me with her experience and by sending us photos along the way he was in amazing hands. He also loved (maybe had a crush) on the other dog staying with her, so honestly, I think it was a vacation for my dog too! HA. Definitely will be coming back if we long term travel again!”
“Finn’s second time with Holly and he ran right inside when we dropped him off like it was his own house! He was so excited to be there and hang with Millie which makes us feel so good leaving him. Thanks again, Holly!”
“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!”
“Kiersten provided a happy, loving, and relaxed environment for our doggo who is often anxious in boarding situations. Boo had a wonderful time playing with her other dogs and Kiersten took great care of her!! Will definitely use Kiersten again!”
