“Traci & Jeff are the most welcoming people. I have never been more at peace leaving our girls in someone's care. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a pet sitter! We got pictures and text updates throughout their stay and that gives us extra peace of mind.”

“Cocoa had a great time with Joe and Bonnie. Cocoa is a timid dog who gets so nervous she visibly shakes, Joe was able to calm her down in minutes. I felt comfortable leaving Cocoa with them and will use them again. They texted me daily to let me know how she was doing.”

“Angela and her family took great care of our 2 year old Bichpoo mix. She was in constant communication and sent photos daily. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs! Will definitely be using her for future trips .”

“Kerri & Harry always do a great job with Layla! It's always obvious how much Layla enjoy spending time with them and how well Kerri & Harry take care of Layla.”

“Roseann was great! She picked up our dog at the house and sent us lots of pics and communication! She waited to introduce our dog to hers and it went really well. Bonus was having Roseanne’s sons to play with our dog, just like our dog’s 2 brothers :-) It is great to have our dog in a loving home and not in a sterile kennel!!”

“Melissa and Dan were absolutely wonderful with my dog, Princess Leia. She’s a small terrier and very much a COVID puppy, so she hasn’t had a lot of exposure to other dogs. I was a bit nervous about leaving her while I went out of town for my 50th high school reunion, but Melissa and Dan put me at ease right away. From the start, my plan was to have Leia stay with them for two nights, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place. They have a lovely fenced yard and several dogs of their own, which created the perfect environment for Leia to safely and gradually get used to being around other dogs. Dan works from home, so I knew she was getting plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. They kept me updated with several photos and messages showing how Leia was doing, which I really appreciated. It was clear that she was settling in well and getting comfortable in their home and with their dogs. When I picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and seemed to have genuinely enjoyed her little “vacation.” I highly recommend Melissa and Dan for dog sitting. They truly love dogs, understand dog behavior, and provide a safe, caring, and engaging environment. I would not hesitate to book with them again.”

“Katie takes the best care of Honey, our mini golden doodle when we are out of town. She is so caring and responsive, and I know she and sweet Rooney make Honey feel right at home. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving friend to watch your fur baby!”


“They took great care of our two Dobermans! We got lots of pics, videos, and correspondence. They have a huge backyard where they got plenty of exercise. Bodhi and Haumea looked very happy when we picked them up. We will definitely use them in the future.”

“Nikolaj kindly watched Luna during a difficult time in my life and I was confident that she was treated well. Nikolaj is very gentle and calm, which balances my high energy puppy.”


“Kathleen was great. We were nervous leaving our dog for 4 days but Kathleen and her family were great with her. She sent us alot of updates and pictures which was very reassuring!”

“Jeffrey was my first time using Rover for my dog, Darcy. Jeffrey sent me updates and pictures that really helped me feel good about the care and responsibility he undertakes while watching others' furry family members. I was very pleased with Jeffrey and will definitely use him again if the need arises. Thank you, Jeffrey!”

“Exceptional care for our Stella again on her good days and bad days as a senior pup with a chronic health condition. Ryan and his family go above and beyond to ensure she is loved and has the best care even offering vet trip. You can travel knowing your fur baby is in great hands.”

“Cathleen was phenomenal!! She took care of our dog like she was her own! We got daily pictures and updates of our dog snuggling with her family! There was a fenced in yard for Jingle to roam and a family dog for her to pal around with! It is so great that our dog can stay in the house with a family and does not have to be in crate! Highly recommend Cathleen and we will be sending our dog back to her when we go away on our next hockey trip!”

“We knew from the moment Maggie stepped foot inside Meghan’s home that she felt safe and loved. I was amazed at the number of photos and updates that greeted me everyday. Maggie looked super happy and comfortable. Meghan is not only the ultimate puppy sitter; she’s a compassionate soul. I couldn’t imagine leaving Maggie with anyone else.”

“Gabriela is an extremely warm and compassionate sitter. Her home is clean, bright and welcoming. She's very interested in knowing all you dogs need and loves to send pictures and updates throughout her stay. I highly recommend her and most definitely use her again!”

“Lincy is our go-to sitter for our dog, she always does a great job keeping him active and having fun. During his last visit with Lincy, our dog had recently been diagnosed with an infection and needed to take several medications. She was diligent in making sure he took all his meds (even when he spat them out), which we really appreciated! We’d recommend Lincy in a heartbeat!”

“Lauren did a great job with Bruno! I can tell he enjoyed his stay very much! She sent photos and gave us updates on how he was doing. Bruno will definitely be back! Thanks again!”

“Liubov was wonderful with our dog Ollie while we were on vacation. It was the first time that we used a sitter and were a little nervous about it, but meeting Liubov put us at ease. She texted us daily with updates, pictures and videos of Ollie. It was obvious how comfortable he was with her. I highly recommend her and will be using her again when we go on vacation!”

“Heather had her hands full with my 7 month old lab/husky puppy. She accepted the challenge and took great care of Meadow. I appreciated the updates and pictures. Would highly recommend Heather as a pet sitter.”

“Bill was wonderful with our babies! All 9 days, we got wonderful pictures and updates about what they were up to and how they were doing! Made our vacation stress free, and we looked forward to seeing his check ins!! Thank you Bill for being awesome for our kitties! 10/10🩷🩷”

“We felt confident leaving our sweet cat for the week knowing she was in good hands. We received great pics and everything went very smoothly. We would definitely trust her again! Thanks so much!”

“Kristi watched my two cats this week and was amazing!! I would definitely hire her in the future. She was quick to respond to messages and always provided great photos and recaps of her visits with my babies! I felt so much less stress this vacation knowing I could trust her to take care my cats. Thank you Kristi!”

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Diane to check in on our dog, Riley, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, Diane demonstrated a genuine love for animals and a high level of professionalism. She was in tune with Riley’s needs and followed all the instructions we provided for feeding, watering and caring for Riley. Diane sent photos and an update from her check in visit which gave us peace of mind, knowing Riley was in good hands. I highly recommend Diane Hanna to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. Thank you Diane for taking such good care of Riley!”


“Kerri & Harry did great with my cat! I was gone for a week and my cat requires daily injections, it was great getting the update cards with pictures seeing that he was warming up to them quickly and I felt super comfortable knowing that he was in good hands. Communication, setup, and clean-up were all easy as well. Everything was perfect, Kerri & Harry are wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend!”


About: For many years, I have provided cat care for friends and family, neighbors whenever they traveled, worked long hours, or needed extra help with their pets. Through these experiences, I have cared for cats with a wide range of personalities, from affectionate lap cats who love attention to shy and independent cats who prefer a quieter approach. My responsibilities have included feeding according to specific schedules, refreshing water, and cleaning litter boxes. In addition to meeting their basic needs, I enjoy spending quality time with cats through play, enrichment activities, and companionship. I have experience using interactive toys, engaging energetic cats in active play, and giving extra patience and reassurance to nervous or newly adopted cats. I am also comfortable caring for multiple cats in the same household and making sure each one receives individual attention. Friends and family trust me to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care while they are away. I treat every cat as if they were my own, focusing on their comfort, safety, and well-being so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands.
“Stephanie did a great job! We were in short need of someone to take care of our geriatric kitties and she promptly responded without hesitation. She was able to do everything we asked including special food needs for one of our cats. We would not have any reservations in asking Stephanie to help us again.”


“I booked Carly last minute to feed my cat for three days while I in the hospital delivering my first child, and I'm so grateful she was available. She was reliable, communicative, and gave great updates and photos. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat was in good hands during an overwhelming time. I would absolutely book Carly again and highly recommend her.”


“Kayla was great with my dog. He is older and can be a little stand-offish but she was very patient and understanding. She was communicative and let me know exactly how they were doing. I would definitely hire her again!”

“Jeffrey was a wonderful sitter for our three cats. He did everything we asked and more. He came by for an orientation and was warm and gentle with the cats. He kept everything clean and truly cared about an appropriate environment for our cats. He visited twice in one day and heated up the cats' food, even though we did not ask. He sent photos and messages. We could not have been happier. Thank you, Jeffrey!”

“Dana was an excellent drop-in sitter for our cat while we were away! She was extremely friendly and professional. She sent us pictures of him each time she visited and left very nice comments letting us know what she did each time she was there. I would highly recommend Dana as a pet sitter. I will definitely be using Dana again in the future! Thank you very much Dana for taking such great care of our very vocal boy while we were gone!”

“Kim and Paul took excellent care of our two cats over Thanksgiving. They shared great pictures of the cats and everybody was happy when we returned. We felt like the boys and our home were in good hands.”

“My labradoodle puppy Guinness is always so happy to see Roseanna and her family for a bit of doggy daycare, and they’ve even accepted him into their home for the day with little notice! He is always still happy when I go pick him up after a day of playing with them, and all the dogs. In addition to that we’ve gotten great tips and feedback from Roseanna. Guinness can’t wait for his next stay! Thank you!”

“Angela, Michael, and their kids were amazing! I had reached out about them watching my dog on Thanksgiving last minute due to last minute plans, and they were lifesavers. They were incredibly flexible, and watched her from the early morning until late night. They sent lots of pictures and updates and my dog seemed to settle in really well and enjoyed herself. They also were really responsive and I never had to wait long for a message or response. She can be a nervous dog but Angela and Michael made sure she felt comfortable and I know that she was in good hands. Overall, a really trustworthy family to watch your dog - will be booking them again if needed and will be recommending them to my friends. Thanks guys!”
“I felt very confident that Gordon was in good hands with Melissa and Dan! I loved seeing all the pics and know, even with his anxiety, that he warmed up to their kindness and patience. Would absolutely use their services again 🙏🏼”

“Bonnie and Joe are just what we've been looking for in a dog sitter. Lovely warm home with a large backyard and two of the sweetest animal lovers, giving you total assurance your fur baby will be loved and cared for just like at home. We've only tried daycare so far to get him use to them but I can tell he loves them already. Looking forward to boarding him there soon as I know he will be safe and happy and cared for with lots of cuddles and treats.”


“My dog loves this sitter! The second time I took him for pet sitting he was so excited that he didn’t noticed me leave, even though with most sitters he whines a lot when he is dropped off. Our puppy has LOVED being watched by their family. We will continue to use them whenever we need someone to watch Wookiee.”
About: I grew up with two dogs (a German Shepherd and a Bichon Frise). They were the sweetest boys to ever exist!! I do not currently have any pets because I don’t think I could handle the loss. But, I have been pet sitting other people’s pets for over 5 years outside of rover. I have pet sit both cats and dogs :) I’m currently working full time remotely. So I have lots of time to spend with your pets! I do travel for work so there may be some weeks that I will not be available but that will all be noted on my calendar. I have a fenced in yard. Pets in our house are allowed inside and on furniture. If you request it I will crate your dog. I have a little sister who is 10 and she loves animals just as much as I do and respects their space but I do require all pets I take care of to be kid friendly.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and raised my children with pets. We have a huge yard for dogs to run and play in and lots of dog toys! I have very flexible schedule to fit your needs and can work on short notice. I am currently working 3 days a week from home and home most weekends and holidays to play and care for your pet as well as have a very flexible schedule to fit your needs. I have a huge fenced in yard to run and play. My dog loves to sit outside as well and enjoy the sun and watching people walking and cars going by.

“I had 2 other pet sitters cancel on me before I found Kathleen. She was a lifesaver. She was willing to watch Gia and Ghira with little notice. She was so easy to communicate with. She sent me multiple pictures during their time at her house. I would highly recommend Kathleen. She was awesome!”

About: I promise to treat your fur babies like my own! I love animals and I am happy to take care of yours while you’re away. I definitely LOVE cats and I prefer smaller dogs. I have worked with animals for a very long time and have experience with larger dogs (and ones that may not have perfect behavior!) I think it’ll depend on the dog when we meet to see if it’s a good fit! I have a flexible schedule as I am in graduate school and working at a yoga studio. I can pop in and out whenever you need. I am willing to go to your house or have your pet stay with us. We have two loving cats who often are visited by a dog we sit. We can also separate them if it is needed and have the dog on the lower level and the cats on the higher level. We can accommodate for you.
“Lovely and welcoming environment. Our dogs settled in very quickly and got along great with his dog. When we picked them up they were happy and obviously had a very good day. We are very grateful for the great care he gave them! We will definitely ask him to watch them again as we have family in the area and come back to town a couple times a year. ?”
About: I've worked with animals of all sizes since I was 12 years old. From volunteering on farms and ranches, to caring for small exotic animals and dogs of my own, I love animals of all sorts and enjoy just spending time with them whenever I can. I've spent the better part of my life involved with animals, I've pet sit for a number of families and have even worked on rehabilitating abandoned horses. I am very comfortable working with dogs that have disabilities as well as I have watched dogs that have diabetes, seizures, paralysis, and age related issues and despite the disabilities we still make the stay an enjoyable one. With me, dogs will get plenty of love, play time, and as many walks as they'd like! I currently hold a full time remote job so my flexibility is great for pet sitting! I can do morning, afternoon and/or evening walks, I can accept pet care in my home or travel. I have many options for accommodation. I reside in a safe private community townhome with plenty of walking paths and a fenced in yard. I do prefer to host at my home as it makes remote work easier due to my inability to transport my monitors but am open to house sitting upon request.
“We are moving permanently to the other side of the country this week and are super sad that Jeffrey will no longer be our dog sitter. He has been amazing for daycare and boarding, and you and your pet(s) will be extremely happy with Jeffrey.”

“Claire was amazing with our puppy Ozzy! He was so excited to see Claire every morning and she took such good care of him. We will definitely be using Claire again any time we need a sitter in the future!”

“Elaine was great and caring. My pup always feels anxious when she is in a new environment and with new people. Elaine did her best so that Daisy felt good like at home. She took a great care of my dog. I’m very thankful for this experience and would absolutely recommend her!”

“Michelle and Khan took great care of Gummy! She was so happy when I picked her up. They were very responsive and sent lots of pictures and updates on gummy. Will definitively be booking with them again soon :) Thank you so much for taking care of my baby!!”

About: I have been taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes for 10 years now. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and breeds. I can feed, medicate, walk, sleep over and care for your fur baby! I specialize in high energy pets that need just a tad bit more attention! I am an avid pet lover and cannot wait to meet your four legged family member! I am currently working 3 days a week and am home plenty to make sure your pet gets the care they deserve! I always check up in the morning, give them space when they’d like it, come back multiple times for playtime, make sure they ate some and do everything to make them comfortable! I do not have a fence but I do have a lot of grassy areas for outdoor loving pets! I love playing in that space, long walks and outdoor time to help get their energy out! I always take things slow and at the pets pace.

“Bill is wonderful with our new rescue. He’s so calm and loves to play ball with and pet her. They’re a perfect match. Thank you Bill. It’s easy to go away when I know you’re looking in on her.”


About: Hi my name is Reina! I’ve been pet sitting with Rover since June 2024. I used to work full time at a bakery, but I would love more than anything to care for animals full time so I'm aiming to achieve that right now! I also volunteer at a cat shelter twice a week in my spare time :) I have three long haired cats and a goldendoodle that I love dearly. I'm comfortable around pets of all shapes and sizes, no breeds make me nervous. I'm able to give oral medication and have done this for clients before. My one cat even gets an inhaler! I strictly follow feeding instructions and have no issues cleaning up after any pets. I used to work full time at a bakery, but I would love more than anything to care for animals full time so I'm aiming to achieve that right now! I'm located in Trevose with reliable transportation. For house sittings I will stay the entirety of the sitting if that’s preferred! I am unable to provide boarding at my house but I can house/pet sit no problem! If you are looking to book a dog sitting or walking, meeting them beforehand would be important to me to make sure we are comfortable with each other :) For any service, I send lots of photos and maybe too many text updates on how it’s going! I’m also comfortable with cameras being in the house.

“Natalie is always wonderful with Finn! He comes back happy and tired after his first walk- which is the goal to get his energy out! In addition, Natalie always provides wonderful updates and pics and has accommodated many last minute requests. I highly recommend! Thanks Natalie!”

About: I've always been a dog lover! I've had a dog for almost 13 years and frequently dog sit for family members! I am also a daycare teacher and love getting to care for them and grow with them! As a daycare teacher, I quickly pick up on their schedules, allergies, different needs of each child, etc., which would easily translate into helping your furry friend. I hope to get to know you and your furry family members! I am currently working full time as a daycare teacher but have most nights and weekends free. I would be available after about 5:15pm on week nights and throughout the day on weekends! I do have a family dog and frequently dog sit family dogs. Taking them for walks (or simply letting them out in the backyard), playing and interacting with them, and feeding them all on their schedule! And of course, loving them unconditionally

About: That is what I become with your pet! I've owned and cared for dogs and cats since age 12. "Family" members is what pets become to me and I share my love, care, support (and professionalism) with all of them. I am an active outdoor/walker and having a dog join me makes it even more enjoyable and special. A meet and greet with you and your pet prior is appreciated and helpful for all of us! I recently retired from corporate life and have transplanted to Bucks County from NY! My schedule is flexible, I am quite active...volunteer at an animal sanctuary, enjoy the outdoors walking/biking, meeting new friends as well as many DOGS and CATS. I've always had my own pups and also provide walks, feeding, socializing and caring for family/friend's pets (already started with my new neighbor!). I'd love to meet and help you out as well. We have a 9 year old cat Thor at home who is friendly but frightened of other cats/dogs so I am happy to come to you!
“Diane was so helpful with a last minute request. I broke my wrist and was so grateful for her assistance in getting our pup the exercise he needs. Our puppy loved her and she was so patient with him. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Aster, I’m a college student, and I’ve loved pets since I was still learning how to walk! Since I was little I’ve lived with and cared for five different dogs, one of which I personally trained since he was a puppy, and two rescues that needed some more TLC than your average pet. I’ve walked and pet-sat for various friends and neighbors since I was five—for dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs and birds! I’ve volunteered at farms and worked with a variety of farm animals as well. I currently have two dogs and a cat. I’m well accustomed to walking, feeding, grooming, bath time, giving medication via pills or gels, and lots and lots of love! I’ve cared for senior and puppy dogs, and dogs from 10 up to 90 pounds so I’m ready for any size of furball. My husky mix Sky has been with me for almost 11 years now, meaning I’m also used to handling dogs with higher energy or mischievous personalities (if you’re a fellow husky owner I know you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about haha). I’ve cared for a rescue cat of my own since she was about a year old, and also have some experience pet sitting for others’ cats. Any pet I take care of I always treat like they’re my own furbaby! Pets are family to me, not just a job, and I make an effort to truly connect with any pet I’m caring for—even if it’s just for one walk! I promise lots of pets and attention (if that’s something your pet likes) and I’m always up for taking as many photos as you want of your pet so you can see how they’re doing! I’m currently home from college for the summer and have extremely open and flexible hours for pet care. I’ll be available until the end of August when I leave for my next semester. I am very flexible to following whatever plan your pet needs. If you give me a schedule I will do my absolute best to follow it down to the punctuation! Whether I’m walking or pet sitting your pet, they’ll have my full attention. I’m always looking out for their health and comfort.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have spent my life caring for them, including fostering in the past. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for family, friends, and neighbors, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, punctual, and committed to giving each dog the attention and exercise they need. I enjoy being outdoors and going on walks, so your dog will get plenty of activity and care. From playtime to cuddles, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I’m starting a sonography program this summer, so I’m looking to pick up some extra work in the meantime! I’m currently available Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and I’m happy to be flexible within that schedule to meet pets’ needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, prioritizing safety, comfort, and routine. I ensure the environment is clean, calm, and pet-proofed, and I closely follow each pet’s normal feeding, walking, and play routines. I pay attention to individual needs and any special instructions, and of course provide plenty of love and attention, along with updates so owners feel informed and confident while they’re away.
About: I am a big animal lover, I have watched dogs before, and had a great time! I will happily walk, feed, play with, and cuddle with any dog! I’m currently a college student with lots of free time, so I will happily fill my day with taking care of and playing with dogs or cats! Currently I am a college student, so there wouldn’t be any dog or cat hangout at my place, however I would be happy to travel to and visit your pets.
About: I used to have a dog - he passed away this past year but he was a big golden retriever! I would love to get back in dog care and take care of your animal !

In terms of walking I love walking dogs and take them on excursions and adventures in parks and nature centers, dog shoppes and so much more. Just let me know your dogs triggers and behaviors on walks I’m pretty free during weekends but am also flexible during weekdays - currently I am waiting on starting work but it will be part time so if I am out of the house I will coordinate with you when I can sit I don’t have a fence but a big yard and a big house they can sleep wherever they feel comfortable and get lots of hugs and kissses

“Melissa and Dan were absolutely wonderful with my dog, Princess Leia. She’s a small terrier and very much a COVID puppy, so she hasn’t had a lot of exposure to other dogs. I was a bit nervous about leaving her while I went out of town for my 50th high school reunion, but Melissa and Dan put me at ease right away. From the start, my plan was to have Leia stay with them for two nights, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place. They have a lovely fenced yard and several dogs of their own, which created the perfect environment for Leia to safely and gradually get used to being around other dogs. Dan works from home, so I knew she was getting plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. They kept me updated with several photos and messages showing how Leia was doing, which I really appreciated. It was clear that she was settling in well and getting comfortable in their home and with their dogs. When I picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and seemed to have genuinely enjoyed her little “vacation.” I highly recommend Melissa and Dan for dog sitting. They truly love dogs, understand dog behavior, and provide a safe, caring, and engaging environment. I would not hesitate to book with them again.”

“Katie takes the best care of Honey, our mini golden doodle when we are out of town. She is so caring and responsive, and I know she and sweet Rooney make Honey feel right at home. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving friend to watch your fur baby!”


“They took great care of our two Dobermans! We got lots of pics, videos, and correspondence. They have a huge backyard where they got plenty of exercise. Bodhi and Haumea looked very happy when we picked them up. We will definitely use them in the future.”

“Nikolaj kindly watched Luna during a difficult time in my life and I was confident that she was treated well. Nikolaj is very gentle and calm, which balances my high energy puppy.”


“Kathleen was great. We were nervous leaving our dog for 4 days but Kathleen and her family were great with her. She sent us alot of updates and pictures which was very reassuring!”

“Jeffrey was my first time using Rover for my dog, Darcy. Jeffrey sent me updates and pictures that really helped me feel good about the care and responsibility he undertakes while watching others' furry family members. I was very pleased with Jeffrey and will definitely use him again if the need arises. Thank you, Jeffrey!”

“Exceptional care for our Stella again on her good days and bad days as a senior pup with a chronic health condition. Ryan and his family go above and beyond to ensure she is loved and has the best care even offering vet trip. You can travel knowing your fur baby is in great hands.”

“Cathleen was phenomenal!! She took care of our dog like she was her own! We got daily pictures and updates of our dog snuggling with her family! There was a fenced in yard for Jingle to roam and a family dog for her to pal around with! It is so great that our dog can stay in the house with a family and does not have to be in crate! Highly recommend Cathleen and we will be sending our dog back to her when we go away on our next hockey trip!”

“We knew from the moment Maggie stepped foot inside Meghan’s home that she felt safe and loved. I was amazed at the number of photos and updates that greeted me everyday. Maggie looked super happy and comfortable. Meghan is not only the ultimate puppy sitter; she’s a compassionate soul. I couldn’t imagine leaving Maggie with anyone else.”

“Gabriela is an extremely warm and compassionate sitter. Her home is clean, bright and welcoming. She's very interested in knowing all you dogs need and loves to send pictures and updates throughout her stay. I highly recommend her and most definitely use her again!”

“Heather had her hands full with my 7 month old lab/husky puppy. She accepted the challenge and took great care of Meadow. I appreciated the updates and pictures. Would highly recommend Heather as a pet sitter.”

“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”

“This is our 2nd stay with Christine. She has always communicated well with us on Chewie's stay. We love that she tries to watch only 1 dog at a time to keep her focus on the care of 1. We are already booked with Christine in Sept.”

“A great set up and very responsive! Marie cared for our (very an a very anxious and codependent )pup while we were away for a weekend and provided regular updates with pictures and videos. We will most definitely use her again!!”

“This was Cooper's 2nd time with Kathleen. He seemed very comfortable when I dropped him off and when I picked him up. The photos and video of him showed how comfortable he was there. I really enjoy seeing the photos during his stay.”

“Rob sent pictures everyday and took great care of my pup, Bamba. I can’t recommend him enough if you want a chill and comforting presence around your dog. He’s someone that makes even an anxious owner like myself feel at ease with boarding her. Thanks Uncle Rob!”

“Michael was great with my dog - so great that it seemed like he hadn't missed us at all. It's obvious he loves dogs and I saw him running with them! All in all an excellent choice that I will renew without a doubt.”
“Milissa was amazing with Thor! Even with Thor’s separation anxiety, she was patient, attentive, and handled him so well. She was very communicative throughout his stay and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I could tell Thor was well cared for and in good hands. I would absolutely trust her to watch him again.”
