“Jayne and her family are great with Kira... Jayne's very responsive and sends a daily update, which I really appreciate! I trust Kira is in good hands when she's with Jayne!”
“Krysten & family were so great! We were able to have nice peace of mind Leo was very well taken care of during our long weekend. Krysten sent many picture and video updates to let us know Leo was happy! Highly recommend Krysten & family!”
“Anna was amazing! This was our first time doing an in home dog boarding and I couldn’t be happier that I chose Anna! She was very quick to respond to my inquiry and quick to communicate. She was very accommodating and I loved that she sent photos during Nova’s stay! She has a beautiful home and a great fenced in backyard. We were also happy to hear that she doesn’t take a lot of pets at once because Nova doesn’t get along well with other dogs and a lot of places won’t take her because of that. We go out of town often so having this option is relieving and we are grateful. Our Nova will definitely be back!”
“Paige was so friendly! She was an amazing communicator and sent us constant updates on how our ‘baby’ was doing. You can tell our dog was really loved on! I would definitely rebook with Paige!”
“Melissa, her family and home were amazing for our gals! Our shy and skittish gals felt VERY comfortable with the family immediately and loved the toy box. The girls were very well taken care of, had a blast, loved playing with their dogs and were tired when we got home. We got pictures and videos while we were away which we loved!!! We will definitely be booking with her again. THANK YOU!!!!!”
“Highly recommend Melissa. Her replies are quick, within moments, she cared for Addie for the day and I returned to a very calm happy pup. It was cute when we arrived her mini Aussie ran out to greet my dog and was very sweet and put us both at ease quickly. Will book again.”
“We are so happy we had Larysa watch our dog Millie while we were out of town! She treated our pup like one of her own and sent us lots of updates so we felt at ease that she was in great hands. We will definitely use Larysa again and Millie will be so excited to go back!”
“Melissa‘s kindness, sincerity, and genuine warmth shine through from the moment you meet her. Her home has that same welcoming energy –comfortable safe and full of thoughtful touches. The meat-and-greet Melissa offered before the stay was generous and reassuring, and Copper, her pup, was the perfect host - basically the mayor of hospitality town! He welcomed Peanut like an old friend and immediately showed her around. Melissa was flexible, thoughtful, and attentive, and she sent photos and videos throughout Peanut’s stay that absolutely made my day. Peanut came home ready for a nap, content, and clearly well-cared for - the Holy Trinity of a perfect pup vacation! Copper even taught Peanut how to go down the stairs, which definitely deserves its own merit badge. I am grateful for people like Melissa who create a safe, honest, and welcoming space for visiting pups. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely caring home for their dog. You almost want to ask if she offers human boarding too. Melissa is agem – five stars, many tail wags, and a standing ovation from Peanut.”
“They were super kind and approachable. We knew within a couple of minutes of meeting them that our kitties were in good hands. They kept us updated with how things were going and sent many pictures. We could see along the way that they didn't just do the basics for care, but also interacted with them as if they were there own pets. It was a great experience and we had no worries whatsoever.”
“I booked a weekend stay for my dog Dewey with Parker. She was friendly, welcoming, and did great with keeping me updated on how things were going through frequent texts and pictures. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Josie was wonderful with my dog while I was away for eleven days. She provided regular updates and was clearly attentive to my dog’s needs. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and felt completely at ease during my vacation knowing my dog was in good hands. I’d happily recommend Josie and would definitely ask her again.”
“Rachel and her family did great with my little one. She updated me every day with pictures and videos and a complete report of each day. They welcome Coco as one more of their family and he received lot of attention and care during the stay. I totally recommend them and definitely I will book again with her.”
“Justin is absolutely amazing. Communication was quick and honest. Our pup had a good time playing and was well taken care of. We will definitely be requesting Justin for all of our pup’s daycare needs in the future. Highly recommend.”
“Shayla is very responsive and great to work with. She treats your dog like one of her own. She has an awesome large fenced in back yard with so much space to play. I loved all the pictures and updates she sends. Will definitely be back for more stays!”
“We booked with Lezlie a last minute 3 days board sitting for our dog Pete. She was supper accommodating and took great care of Pete. We appreciate all the pictures and how we were kept informed about his day. We can tell he had a great time! And would love to rebook with her next time.”
“Our Stevie was treated very well with Nichole and her family. She was very accommodating even though it was a holiday week. We appreciated the photos and that she even took our dog out for pup cups. We would definitely recommend and use again.”

“Brittany did a wonderful job watching our two cats. We have a cat who gets anxious when we leave and tends to pee on furniture or clothes if we are gone more than a day or two. We were gone for five days and there were no such incidents thanks to Brittany’s attentive care. Our animals seemed happy and content as if we hadn’t left at all, and it was such a relief to come home to relaxed animals in a clean home. 10/10, thank you Brittany!”
“Olivia was amazing with our kitty! She gave us peace of mind with her detailed check-ins and pictures while we were on vacation. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again! Just the best!”
“This was my first time using Rover and/or boarding our cat. Maria was so kind and thoughtful with answering all my questions and giving updates! Every picture she sent really showed how comfortable my cat was getting and that she was making sure to give him love and attention. We would absolutely use her again and recommend her to anyone.”
“This is my second time booking Lori and she continues to be an absolute gem! The cats love her and she’s great with Basil’s medication. She’s incredibly thoughtful too!”
About: I have had dogs my entire adult life, up to 7 at one time, including a husky. I now only have 1, since I had to move and left the rest with my old roommate (some were his anyway, and I took the one that had chosen me as his human). Every dog I've ever had was properly trained to at least sit on command - with or without a treat. When I had the 7, I could have the pack surround me, and call them one by one for their treat, and only the one called would reach. People have watched my dog's behavior out in public and have aske if I could train their dogs! I have no formal training for dog training, but I did grow up watching Caesar on Animal Planet, and implemented his behavior training techniques with all of my own dogs when they were puppies, or from the time I accepted them in as strays. I have cared for others pets in the past, but not in a professional capacity. I sat for a friend of mine at her house, caring for 3 dogs and a cat. I fed the cat in the morning and at night and cleaned her litter box once a day. The dogs got fed on the same schedule, and spent the majority of the day outside in the fenced back yard unless it was raining. I went outside and threw balls and sticks for them a few times each day, for about an hour or so each time. I currently do not have a job, so I am available full time, any day or time. I have my own dog who prefers to not let me out of his sight, and will cry if I leave him at home alone, so getting a traditional job while living in an apartment is out of the question. With that said, I would need to bring him with me. He is going on 10 years old, and has never met a dog or person he didn't love. I am glad to bring him for a meet and greet before any commitments are made. Every dog has a way to let you know they need something. My dog prefers to attempt cuddles when he needs anything, leaving me playing a guessing game until I get it right. He gets super excited when I get it right! As a senior dog, I leave his food out 24/7, and check it in the mornings when I get up and at night when I go to bed to make sure it's not empty. If I notice that it's empty at any point during the day, I simply refill it. Same with his water. His potty schedule is pretty much the same - first thing in the morning, any time he asks during the day, and then one last trip out at bedtime. I know not every dog can follow this schedule, but I have also had dogs who needed me to set alarms to take them out every hour or two, until they were properly house trained. All I need from you is your dogs schedule.
“Miss Madison is amazing! She took such great care of both my babies. She boarded my senior dog and did drop in visits on my cat. Madison also has a senior dog so it was nice for him to have a companion he could keep up with! She sent lots of pictures and updates during my trip that gave me the warm and fuzzies that my animals were in great care. I plan to book with her again soon! Thank you again Miss Madison!”
About: Although I am starting fresh on Rover, I have cat sat for friends/family in the past; I am looking to gain more experience with cats so I can offer more specialties when needed. I currently know how to provide oral medications (pills/liquid). Whether you need me to be home all day or just stop by daily to feed em & give them some loving, I can definitely do that! I offer meet & greets ahead of time so I can meet both you & your cat to get everyone comfier. We'll discuss any concerns or directions needed to ensure all parties feel comfortable by the end of the visit. Aunque este empezando desde cero en Rover, he cuidado los gatos de mis amigos y familiares en el pasado; solamente que ahora quiero ganar más experiencia para poder ofrecer más especialidades cuando sea necesario. Se dar medicinas oral (pastillas/liquido). Ya sea que necesites que esté en casa todo el día o simplemente pase todos los días para darles de comer y acariciarlos un rato, ¡definitivamente puedo hacerlo! Ofrezco conocernos con antelación para poder conocerte y a tu gato para que todos estén más cómodos. Platicaremos sobre cualquier inquietud o reglas necesarias para asegurar que todas las partes se sientan cómodas al final de la visita.

I love getting to know their personalities. I am a freelance artist, my current schedule is pretty flexible. I open currently to new clients that are looking for drop in visits or walks. Since I have pets of my own, I am only open to walking and watching pets in their own home. I enjoy understanding animals and how to make them comfortable.
“Magdalen did a great job with our 9 week old kitten! It was our kitten's first time home without us, and Magdalen helped us all feel less anxious. She sent us multiple updates and pictures, and did a great job with kitten enrichment! We will definitely book her again!”
“Kelsey did a great job taking care of our cats. Left the house clean and took care of all the trash. Cats look great! Couldn’t have asked for a better job! Daily updates were nice and she worked very well with the cats. Thank you Kelsey”
“Emma was absolutely amazing with my two cats while I was away for vacation! She was able to give my cat his inhaler and meds with ease. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures, and left my apartment in great condition. Definitely recommend her for your furry babies!”

“I’m late on this review. Amanda was amazing with our “Boys”. They were not stressed when we got home. It was like we were only gone for a bit. Her check ins and pictures were so appreciated. Would recommend her over and over.”
“Matt was very attentive and went above and beyond while he cared for my two large dogs. It was a relief to know that my dogs were in good hands while I was away for a week. I would not hesitate to rebook with Matt in the future or refer him to friends and family in need of pet sitting services.”

About: Hi! My name is Melissa and I'm so happy to be here! I have 15 years of experience caring for and walking my own dogs, and sitting for friends and family. I know the importance of getting some exercise in for your fur friend, and how challenging it can be to find the time some days! So I am here to help, let me take care of that task for you! I enjoy walking and being outdoors and I'd love to have your pup accompany me! I also own my own home with a fully fenced in backyard, and I work full time from home, so if you need boarding or daycare services, my home would be great for you! I have two pups of my own that absolutely love other dogs, so if you are ok with that, we'd love to care for and keep your pup with us, too! I work from home full time, so it’s easy to attend to my pups (and yours!) during the workday. I can make a lunch hour walk or drop work easily. And afternoons and evenings are pretty open! I have a fully fenced in yard and I am able to let my dogs out as often as they need, and they would be perfect companions for your pups when staying here as well
“The sweetest care giver and dogs! My pup had such a fun day and slept the whole evening when we got home bc she was playing so much and so happy! Would absolutely book again”
“Anna and her family are great! We used her daycare services while we had some work being done at our house and she was super flexible when we needed to adjust days last minute. Anna takes such good care of our pup, I highly recommend her!”
“One of the VERY FEW people we trust to watch our pups.💛 Always quick to respond & is great with updates too! They love hanging with her pup & are always so excited when we pull up to her house!”

I will follow your instructions to make your pet feel at home and I always hace extra snacks.
About: I have been a dog owner and lover for most of my life. I currently do not have a dog in the home, so I can focus full-time on your furry family members. I have a lot of experience with pit blends, as well as small dogs. I work freelance from home, and currently have plenty of time to spend giving scritches and going out to play. I am also a runner, and would love to take any dogs with me who love to run. We have a fenced in yard, and a dog room in our basement for naps. We also have a couch in the main living area that's just for dogs, but they are also welcome to sit on our couch or in our recliner chair. We live very close to the bike trail and several parks, and walking distance to the downtown dog park. I also have a dog-safe car for trips to Spencer or Family Dog Park or special trips to The Splash Bark.
About: I work remotely so I’m home most of the day☺️ This allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day! My husband and I are both dog lovers and have a dog of our own, Carter, a 9 y.o. black lab/blue heeler mix. She’s very friendly, easygoing, and gets along great with other dogs🐶 We don’t have kids, so our home is calm and quiet, and the dogs get lots of attention🥰 They’re welcome on the furniture if that’s what they’re used to at home, and we have a large fenced yard where they can safely run and play. We also live in a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for regular walks! I’ll treat your pup like part of the family and do my BEST to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re here🥰 Feel free to reach out with any questions about availability or how boarding/daycare works, I’m always happy to help!☺️ Because I work remotely, I’m home most of the day and able to give dogs lots of attention🥰 Walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my routine I only take up to 2 dogs per day to keep things calm, comfortable, and low-stress for everyone. I treat every dog like family and work from home, so they get plenty of attention and supervision! My home is clean, pet-friendly, with a large fenced yard for safe playtime, and I always follow each dog’s routine to help them feel at ease🙂
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and caged animals since I was little. I also worked at Petco grooming for a few years. We have 2 Chihuahuas of our own, 2 Sphynx and an Axolotl. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible and open most days. Just let me know what you need and we can work it out! I will care for your pet in your home how you request me to. In our home we are very careful to not let our animals out loose, we take them on a leash if they aren’t in the yard and kennel our dogs when we leave.
“We had a great experience! Melissa watched our dog for a few hours, and everything went smoothly. Communication was easy, she was friendly and reliable, and our dog was well cared for.”
“Shayla did a great job with Copper! My dog is very timid and anxious with new places & people, and she was very patient with him and understanding. She sent updated and pics of him throughout the day to update me on how he was doing!”
“Ana did a great job watching our pup while we were visiting from out of town. She was understanding and responsive to our dog who was upset and needy due travel and changing environments. We hope to be back soon!”
“Emily and her pups were amazing sitters for our boy Sonoma today! We were nervous about leaving him with someone for the first time but after chatting with Emily and meeting her and her 2 dogs for a few minutes the day before the planned sitting…we were totally confident that he was in good hands. Emily is such a kind hearted person with a genuine love for dogs and it shows in her care for her own. Sonoma immediately warmed up to her and the 3 puppies were able to have a great time together. She was considerate of our routine/habits and sent pictures all day long, which we were so thankful to have! Sonoma didn’t want to leave Emily’s house and even sat in protest on her porch. We would absolutely love/plan to use Emily again and would recommend her to anyone looking for fantastic care in Paradise!”
About: Hi everyone - I was a mom to older English Bulldogs who have recently passed and understand the need for a sitter at times. I used to use a dog sitter myself during the day and understand how hard it can be to get home sometimes! Now that my doggos are no longer with me, I would love to help you out. I work from home so can accept daycare or overnight boarding at my place. I live in a safe neighborhood and have a fenced in backyard for all of the potty breaks and I can also bring them on short walks if requested. I live in a zero-entry, one-level home with no steps which is great for pets with bad joints.
“When we pulled up to Jordon’s house for day care, Sylbie drug me up to the door. Pulled me right up there. She was excited for the day ahead. Thank you to Jordon and her family for the excellent care for our pet!!!”
“Oliver loved being at Lauren and Corey’s house. They took great care of him and made our first experience with Rover wonderful. We will definitely be contacting them again when we need care for him in the future.”

“Mattie was great. I am waiting for knee surgery and can't walk my dogs so a friend recommended Rover. I chose Mattie and she came over the same day I booked. She walked my dogs and I was able to bicycle along with them and we had a very nice time. I highly recommend her! Thanks Mattie :)”
“Madison was so great! She got back to me promptly and stopped over for a meet and greet before starting service to get to know everyone. My dogs seemed to be very comfortable and happy with her! I enjoyed all the photo updates and I felt at ease knowing they were in good hands feeling safe and loved and getting the exercise they needed!”
About: Growing up I've always had pets of all shapes and sizes. My household was almost like a shelter because we would often take in strays and friends pets they could not longer care for. Neighbors and friends would also ask me to pet sit while they away or check in/walk their animal if they're gone too long. Because of all this I've cared for many cats and dogs of various ages so I understand what kind of care each animal may need. I'm currently going to be doing rover full time so I'll always have availability for your pets. Also I'm almost always around on holidays! At home I have three cats and two dogs (I'm not the only caretaker), and they're all incredibly friendly. Our house is a little small so another location is preferred.
“Olivia had great communication and offered to help with short notice. It was so nice knowing we could leave for a long period of time and Baxter was taken care of! She took him for a walk and made sure he had fresh water after. Love all the pictures! I will definitely reach out to her again!”

About: I've provided pet services and pet/house sitting for a small group of people I've known and been referred to. I've been wanting to expand my clientele, as I have a lot to offer. Although I consider it to be a small side gig, I like to refer to my business affectionately as "No Place Like Home". I have 20 plus years experience, including managing a dog day care for two years. It also includes working with special needs, administering medication orally and through injections. I have references as well as my own personal experience with my cat. I am energetic and can keep up with even the most active dogs. They are my passion. Not only that, pet sitting in your house creates a calmer and safer environment for your pets, as well as keeping your home safe and occupied. I am semi retired. I have a lot of time to spend with your pets in your home ensuring several potty breaks, play and exercise. I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I follow instructions left by the owner and will ensure play and exercise
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I work from home full time. This gives me the flexibility to be there for your pup throughout the day while still managing my workload responsibly. Your dog will enjoy having someone around to give them attention, playtime, and the personal care they deserve! Working from home makes pet care easy for me to fit in, since I can handle walks, feeding, and playtime during breaks while still giving the pets constant supervision without disrupting my work. I live in a house with a backyard where I can comfortably host pets and provide a safe, welcoming environment. Dogs have the freedom to enjoy the backyard throughout their stay, giving them space to play, explore, and get some fresh air. I’m also able to provide walks, potty breaks, and plenty of attention to help them feel comfortable and at home. I’m flexible and always prioritize clear communication with owners to ensure their pets receive the care they need.
“My pups love walking with Kelsey and she is super attentive with them! We'll be happy to stick with her for as long as she's walking in Brandon. She's super courteous and cleans up properly after the pups and gives them treats. Super happy with her walks.”
About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life and currently have one of my own, along with experience caring for guinea pigs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler pace. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach that dogs naturally gravitate toward. I have experience administering medication, handling reactive dogs, and providing long, engaging walks tailored to each dog’s needs. I’m highly detail-oriented and committed to following your pet’s routine closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I also prioritize quick, clear communication, so you’ll always feel informed and at ease while you’re away. I work full-time from home in Sioux Falls, which allows me to provide a calm, consistent environment and give pets attention throughout the day. While I’m typically working until 6 PM Monday through Friday, I’m able to incorporate check-ins into my day as my work schedule is flexible. Before and after work, I dedicate time to walks, play, feeding, and any specific care your pet needs. My evenings are relaxed and centered around making sure pets feel comfortable, exercised, and settled. On weekends, I have more flexibility for longer walks, extra playtime, and maintaining your pet’s routine. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to maintaining your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure in their familiar environment. I’m experienced with administering medication, handling reactive dogs, and adjusting care for puppies or senior pets as needed.
“We have been using Zach to walk our dog for the past couple months. Very respectful, polite, and keeps me updated with all the bookings. Excellent at responding and extremely trustworthy. We will continue to book- very happy customers!! :)”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was a child. Growing up, my family had several dogs, including a Shih Tzu, two Shiba Inus, and a Newfoundland, giving me experience with pets of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels. I also grew up with a Persian cat, whom I helped care for from a young age. These experiences taught me how to provide loving, attentive, and reliable care while adapting to each pet's unique needs. I also volunteer at the Sioux Falls Area Humane Society and participate in their Rescue Day Recess! I currently attend the University of South Dakota and work part-time at Sanford Hospital in Sioux Falls. My schedule gives me flexibility throughout the week to check in on pets, take dogs for walks, provide playtime, feed them, and make sure they're happy and comfortable while you're away. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or some extra attention during the day, I'm committed to providing dependable, loving care that fits their routine. I have watched 2 Shiba Inus by myself for over a year and have taken care of a Newfoundland for multiple nights. Neither of the homes had a fence but I compensate by taking the dogs out multiple times a day and going for walks. I’m very familiar with taking dogs out to relieve themselves, feeding, and possible medications they might need to take. Whether the dog is energetic, like my 2 Shiba Inus, or more relaxed, like my 10 year old Newfoundland, I make it work according to their needs.
About: I am a avid dog lover with a open heart and unconditional love for dogs. I have experience raising aggressive dogs and lap dogs. I am very patient with special needs dogs and dogs that need more time adapting. I love taking long walks and playing with dogs. I know dog CPR, am willing to admister oral medication, bathe your dog and brush as well. Basically, I will treat your dog like a member of my family as he/she is a member of yours. This isn't a full-time service for me, but I am willing to give 110% to taking care of your family member. I do prefer at least a 12 hour notice for any cancelation. I am also 100% committed to your directions as to how to care for your family member. My schedule is completely open to Rover services. If Rover services are needed overnight, I just ask for a 8-12 hours notice. The love for animals is always a priority in my daily routine. I live directly next to several parks and have a friendly support of my own. I love to play frisbee at the several open parks next to my home & where I run with my own dog on a leash.
About: I've had a love for dogs and all animals since I was very young and would love the opportunity to meet your pets and spend time with them! I'm currently working part time and can be available every day of the week and weekend, so no matter when you need help I'll be ready to assist with your furry family members! I keep pets on their normal routine, having safety come first, and sending photos/updates so you never have to wonder how things are going. For house sitting and drop-ins, I follow the instructions given closely and treat your home with like I would my own. On walks, I'm attentive to leash handling, weather, and each dog's mood. For day care, I keep a close eye on playtime so everyone's safe and having fun!
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and love them to death! I enjoy caring for animals or even just keeping them entertained while their humans are away! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I work in healthcare, so I value responsibility, reliability, and keeping a consistent schedule. On my days off and outside of work hours, I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks.I’m happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit their pet’s routine and needs. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, or just some extra company, I make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for someone’s pet. I always make sure to follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions the owner provides. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, comfort level, and any special needs they may have. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with respect and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I pay close attention during walks, keep pets securely leashed when needed, and make sure doors and gates are always properly closed. I also believe communication is very important, so I am happy to send updates and photos to keep owners informed and give them peace of mind while they are away.
About: I have been a pet owner my whole life and have been doing pet sitting for friends and family since I can remember. I seem to connect with pets better than a humans :😊 I have never met a pet I don’t love or love me back. Your furry family members will be in her best hands and ger a lot of love and attention when you are away. I work two part time jobs 9-1pm 4-8/9pm 5 days a week sometimes the days vary. I go to the gym 3-5 days a week I hang out with my little sister twice a week when my schedule allows. I am hoping to return to collage next fall for Vet Tech. My days and schedules are pretty flexible. I live down town Sioux Falls in a studio with my cat, kiwi! I have a reliable car and can get to your home wing no worries

“Krysten & family were so great! We were able to have nice peace of mind Leo was very well taken care of during our long weekend. Krysten sent many picture and video updates to let us know Leo was happy! Highly recommend Krysten & family!”
“Anna was amazing! This was our first time doing an in home dog boarding and I couldn’t be happier that I chose Anna! She was very quick to respond to my inquiry and quick to communicate. She was very accommodating and I loved that she sent photos during Nova’s stay! She has a beautiful home and a great fenced in backyard. We were also happy to hear that she doesn’t take a lot of pets at once because Nova doesn’t get along well with other dogs and a lot of places won’t take her because of that. We go out of town often so having this option is relieving and we are grateful. Our Nova will definitely be back!”
“Paige was so friendly! She was an amazing communicator and sent us constant updates on how our ‘baby’ was doing. You can tell our dog was really loved on! I would definitely rebook with Paige!”
“Melissa, her family and home were amazing for our gals! Our shy and skittish gals felt VERY comfortable with the family immediately and loved the toy box.

We will definitely be booking with her again. THANK YOU!!!!!”

We are already considering booking again for our next trip!”
