“Nate and Roxana are so nice and took good care of our boy. They have beautiful acreage with a pond where the dogs can have a blast. Our favorite part, our boy Charlie was freshly bathed before pick up. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Lindsay took such great care of Laramie for my 2 week trip! It was Laramie’s first time in boarding since she came to us in late 2025, so I was a bit anxious. Laramie is a pretty sensitive girl, and Lindsay was incredibly patient, gentle, and thoughtful with her. It was clear she really paid attention to what Laramie needed to feel comfortable and safe. I really appreciated how much care Lindsay put into helping her settle in and feel secure. Lindsay’s home and single-client at a time set-up was perfect for Laramie. Laramie ended up doing very well during her stay, which meant a lot to me. I’m so grateful for the kindness and attention Lindsay gave her, and I will absolutely trust her with Laramie again. I loved the updates, pictures, and videos that Lindsay sent. It gave me such joy knowing that Laramie was happy and well cared for!”
“Our pup had a fantastic time with Christianna! She took wonderful care of our dog. A trip to the lake with her family, walks and lots of play time with her two dogs - even allowed on the furniture 😊. I really appreciated the pics and texts reassuring me. I absolutely would use and recommend Christianna to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Bailey, Kyle and their pets are wonderful! Our dog had a blast running around their yard, meeting new buddies (their 2 dogs) and exploring a new part of town. It felt like he had so much fun he didn't want to come home and I can tell he is missing playing with other dogs now that he is home. We're excited to have Bailey and Kyle in our network when needed as they obviously understand pet behaviors and exceeded our expectations!”
“Cale did a wonderful job taking care of my pup! He sent daily updates and pictures, and my pup looked so happy playing with the other pups. I’m always nervous leaving my dog with a new sitter, but I quickly felt at ease after meeting Cale. Very kind and responds quickly, and he remembered all the details about my dog. I will definitely book again.”
“Dani was great. It is never easy leaving your dog somewhere new, and Dani made us feel very comfortable with doing that. We will definitely use her in the future. Thanks for taking care of Bailey!!”
“Jeremy was absolutely wonderful! He sent pictures constantly and I always knew our Nola was being taken care of. We highly recommend him and will use him again in the future”
“Bobbi was amazing with our two dogs when we were out of town for a week! She took them out multiple times a day on walks and had several other dogs around to play with them and keep them busy. She sent pictures/videos everyday and they always looked so happy and well taken care of! Will 100% use again if we go out of town! Best Rover experience we’ve had!”
“Kelly has been fantastic! My pup Toshi has stayed with her a couple of nights and she has been so accommodating! She has sent me photos and updates which definitely puts me at ease. She has a large yard and her cute pup Khloe also keeps my dog company. You could tell she loves animals! I cannot recommend her enough, and I will always try and reach out if I need to book another stay for my pup. Thank you, Kelly!”
“I have boarded my 3 dogs with Amanda twice now, and both times they were very well taken care of. I loved getting picture updates from Amanda at the end of each day. Really gave me peace of mind to know my dogs were in a good home and having a good time with the other dogs there. I look forward to boarding my dogs with Amanda again and would not hesitate to refer a friend! Thanks Amanda!!”
“I had to leave my dog for a longer period than I ever have before, and I was really nervous about it. That completely changed when I met Jerrie! She was so kind and understanding about my anxiety, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout my trip, she communicated consistently and sent photos, which made such a difference and helped me relax knowing my dog was in good hands. When I picked her up, it was clear my dog was happy to see me, but also that she had truly bonded with Jerrie and loved her. That meant everything to me. I will absolutely be using Jerrie from now on whenever I need to leave my dog. Highly recommend!”
“They provided excellent communication to me the entire way! The best boarding i have received from Rover. They went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was well taken care of when she was experiencing some separation anxiety overnight.”
“John was fabulous and took lovely care of our dog. Pictures and updates were appreciated. He let us know how she was becoming comfortable at his home and she loved the daily walks.”
“James and his wife went out of their way to provide Henry good care while I was away. They were happy to accommodate his supplements and treats that I brought He enjoyed outside time in their big yard with the other dogs. He made fast friends with one of the bigger dogs and they said they slept cuddled up - so good to hear! They kept in touch and were responsive as well as flexible about pickup. I feel they provide a warm haven for the dogs in their care and their experience in doing this goes a long way.”
“Kristin was great! She sent me pics of my dog everyday and kept me updated with everything. I can tell that she took great care of my dog because she was so happy when I picked her up. Definitely want to book again :) thank you again, Kristin!”
“Desiree does a wonderful job caring for our German Shepherd and our cats. We have had her come cat sit multiple times and recently had our dog stay with her for a few nights. We appreciate the care, attention, and time she spent with our cats during drop in visits and love the bonus love they get from her daughter. The photo updates are always appreciated and our animals look comfortable and happy. We trust her and look forward to them caring for our pets in the future.”
“Molly was wonderful. She sent daily photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind and reassured us that our dogs were safe, happy, and well cared for. She is kind, attentive, and clearly loves animals. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her and would not hesitate to recommend her to others.”

“Tara was great when I needed walking breaks for my puppy. She is easy to communicate with, reliable, handled my puppy well and even brought in packages inside that I had delivered. Tara was so kind and friendly at our meet and great. Will definitely book again if needed in the future.”
“Goblin really took to LeAnn, which isn't always the case with people new to her. Goblin's needs are minimal and LeAnn always took time to pay attention to her and invite her to play. She communicated consistently and was very receptive to any input we had. We would definitely like to have LeAnn kitty sit for us again!”
“Brandon was so fantastic! I cannot say enough nice things. He was super responsive, the pets loved him, and he left the home spotless. He was also a great communicator. Thank you so much and we look forward to next time!!!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely rebook. I needed someone last minute to do drop by visits, Emily responded quickly, within a few hours we had a visit and I booked right after. Walker was well taken care of and she even kept and eye out on my horses as well. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!”
“Thanks again for keeping an eye on our goofball Gary! He's still adjusting to flying solo without his brother around, so he loves all the love and attention you give him while we're away. I love knowing that he's well taken care of while we're out of town.”
About: I have a gentle grounded nature which cats seem to love. I let cats come to me and act accordingly. If they want to play, let’s play. If they just want space, I will provide that. Petting and snuggles are always available for every cat that wants them. I’ve had cats or provided cat sitting services most of my life. I make sure to clean litter boxes frequently (daily or every other day) to ensure cats stay healthy and willing to use their boxes.

I have 15+ years of hands-on experience with pets, along with previous experience working in the veterinary field. My background has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, routines, and the importance of dependable care. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Helena was fantastic! She provided regular updates including photos of our cats. We came home to very happy cats and a very clean place. Our cats seemed to warm up to her very quickly. We would definitely book with Helena again!”
“This was my first time using Rover but Vanessa and Eulalia made it easy. Even though neither of my shy cats showed themselves, they seemed noticeably less anxious when I got home compared to other times I've traveled and had a friend watch them. I will be a repeat customer!”
“Best experience ever! Frankie was super responsive, went way above and beyond with the care she provided for our kitties, and made our whole vacation so relaxing knowing they were safe and happy! She also did a great job taking care of our house and left it clean! We will definitely have her back next time! :)”

“Very pleased with Nate and Roxana’s care for my girl! She was excited and anxious and came home and crashed!! Tired girl from group okay. It was a first daycare experience and she did so great. Appreciated all the pictures and updates. Very responsive in a timely manner. I was put at ease since I was a little nervous leaving her. Great set up/property for the doggies as well! Will be booking again!”
About: -->PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BOOK<-- *I have 2 indoor cats (extremely friendly with dogs/cats) and they love to play with the pups. Make sure your pet is friendly with them too ^^ *If this is your first time with me please let's set up a Meet and Greet so you can meet me and my pets and make sure we are a good fit for your pup!! (I don't take new pets without a previous meet and greet, unless is an emergency case) My priority is to keep your pet safe, comfortable and fully entertained while you are away. Walks around the lake in our neighorhood surrounded by nature are a must do in our daily check list (sometimes we even take them to the mall to socialize and get free treats lol) As a pet sitter I'm offering house & pet walking/sitting opportunities to families (I'm willing to travel farther and pick up them by myself)! I have aided many friends & family members in keeping their pets safe to keep their stay-away stress free! I have years experience with dogs and cats. Feel free to DM for more details or if you need a better deal for long-term boarding 😊 I'm currently at home 24/7. My pets and I are used to wake up at 5:30 sm in the morning for the first "Potty Time" Breakfast between 7-8 am. Walks after midday, naps when/if they are tired. Dinner at 5 pm Generally I take my pets out for potty 3 times a day or when they ask me for. Every dog has their own personality so feel completely free to tell me their routines ❣️❣️(feeding time, potty hours, allowed or not on bed/couch etc) Max and Cleo are Great Pyrenees, 2 extremely gentle giants that love to play and take care of any kind of animals (they are very calm but they love to bark at the begging, they get tired easily after some minutes of play time). In the other hand, Kai is a medium size old doggy, he gets very excited with new pets but a few minutes later he just ignore them and likes to go back to take long naps on the couch. I have 2 friendly indoor cats, they mostly spend the day sleeping inside the bedroom or playing with the dogs from time to time.
“An exemplary professional and person! Kaylee and her family were warm, welcoming, and made themselves available at every turn. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to any friend or family”
“Great day for the dogs, we received pictures and were kept up to date how the girls were doing. We were late picking them up but James is very accommodating, would love to book with him again.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows just how important it is to leave your pup somewhere that feels like home. When I look for a sitter myself, I want peace of mind—knowing my dog is safe, loved, and having a great time. That’s exactly what I offer to you and your dog. My partner and I share our home with our happy, high-energy 2.5-year-old male pup, who we raised from a puppy. He’s super social and always ready to help new dog friends burn off some steam—seriously, he’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime! My partner also grew up breeding miniature English Bull Terriers, so between the two of us, we’ve got years of hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs. When you come to pick up your dog, you won’t have to wonder how it went—you’ll know they were in good hands. Happy, tired, and well-loved—just how it should be. Pet care is built right into my daily life. I work from home, so I'm around all day to give your dog the attention and care they need. I take a midday break to walk my dog 1.5–2 miles, and your pup will be right there with us, getting exercise and fresh air. After work, we go for another walk and spend time playing fetch in the yard. With our fenced yard and dog door, they can enjoy safe outdoor time throughout the day too. Your dog will be an active part of our home life and get plenty of movement, love, and attention from morning to night. 🐶 What you can expect: One-on-one attention: I only host one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full care and focus. Daily walks and outdoor play to keep them active and happy. A dog door to our fenced yard—they can come and go as they please (safely!). A calm, secure, and loving environment where your dog can relax just like they would at home.
“Desiree was so flexible and accepted my fur babies at last minute. During the time I was gone I could tell they received lots of attention with all the pictures I received. I felt completely comfortable and will definitely book again in the future.”
“Tara is a great option for day care or overnight! She has a spacious grassy area for the dogs to run and play and her dog is very sweet and calm. There is ample indoor space as well for the dogs to get out of the rain. Tara obviously knows and loves dogs and we feel confident leaving our fur babies in her care. Thank you Tara!”
“Bailey and Kyle were great! Mike had such a fun day with them—he played for hours with the other dogs and came home happily exhausted (the best kind of tired). They’ve created a really safe, easygoing environment, and it’s clear they genuinely care about the dogs they’re watching. I felt completely comfortable leaving Mike with them and knew he was in good hands the whole time. We’ll definitely be back—Mike is already ready for round two! 🐾”
About: I just recently moved to the Shelton area and have been working with animals my whole life. Your pets are my #1 priority and I always value safety the most. It’s important to me that your pet gets the care, exercise and attention that it needs on a daily basis safely. I live on a golf course with a lake so it’s the perfect area for your pet to get fresh air with a scenic view and plenty of nature to enjoy. I’m always open to new ideas with adventures you’d like your pet to go on or how you’d like your pet to be taken care of. I’ve worked with all types of dogs from elderly/disabled to aggressive giant dogs and puppies that just had surgery. I look forward to meeting with you and your fur babies and set up a meet and greet! It is my full time job so I take it as serious as possible. I love animals and will always give them the love and care they need My home does not have a fenced back yard so I will make sure anytime they leave the house they will be on a leash to keep them safe. I have a large shop where I spend most of my down time where they will have plenty of space to run around and get there zoomies out in a safe space. There are plenty of parks around me with water access at our lake and great walking trails/paths on the golf course where I live.
“I appreciated Bobbi’s clear communication and flexibility. She took great care of my dog for the day! Her house is expertly set up to assist and care for multiple dogs while meeting all their needs. I was very impressed!”
“Winston always enjoys his stays with Kelly and we love that he comes home tired. He gets a good walk and lots of cuddles. And we enjoy that he can run around in her back yard to get out his zoomies.”
“Excellent communication throughout the day. My sweet dog was very happy and very tired when I picked him up. The care that Lelia gives is like one would give their own pet. We will definitely be visiting again!”
“The way Michael gained our dogs’ trust instantly was remarkable. He seemed to enter their world. I love my dogs so much and it was moving to see this. I’m so grateful to be able to leave my dogs in the care of such a person!”
“Excellent service. Sonia has a genuine and special love pets. My baby Maltese Napoleon spent a day with her and when I picked him up he was happy and in a very good mood for a while after we got home. It was super easy to drop off and pick up. I will definitely bring my baby back even if I don’t need care because he even made new fur friends while he was there. Sonia also sent beautiful pictures throughout the day. Total peace of mind when my baby was on her care.”

“I am so glad to have found Frankie for my yellow Labrador. She was flexible with scheduling, and made all efforts to accomodate any last minute requests. Jaggi was at ease with her all the time. She really took care of my dog like he was her own. I will not be looking for anyone else to sit my dog for a while. Thank you Frankie for being so awesome.”
About: I’ve almost always had a dog and/or cat(s) in my home. I’ve been the primary caregiver for my current dog for over 8 years now. She is a highly anxious dog who has to have pills medication twice daily for years now. So I’m very comfortable with administering pills to dogs. I’m most familiar with anxious dogs and they almost always calm down relatively quickly to my gentle grounded nature. I enjoy seeing how happy a simple walk or hike can give a dog and love to give them many opportunities to do so. I have several years experience with pet/house sitting for neighbors and friends. My discipline style = positive reinforcement and gentle but firm reminders. Redirecting their attention typically works wonders. My schedule is currently open to new clients. Let’s chat and see if what you need aligns with what I have to offer at the current moment. Safety is my first priority so I take instructions from you very seriously. You let me know what the rules and constraints are for your home and fur-baby, I will follow them carefully. Tell me what your fur-baby needs and I’ll make sure it gets done.

My pets are a part of my family. I would treat your pets like my own. I love going on walks with dogs and teaching them new tricks. I only take 1 client at a time. I work from home Tuesdays to Fridays. So as long as I have connection to Wi-Fi, I am able to spend my day with your pets. I will respect your home and leave the space as I found it.

About: I have taken care of Cats for years. I had a Diabetic cat, I gave him insulin twice a day. I can give any medication, brush, play, and care for any cat. I also am very good with dogs. I am soft spoken and gentle, animals usually always connect and bond with me. I am pretty flexible, if there is communication I can be ready when needed. Honestly, animals are a priority. They're family and I want to be that reliable person for you and your fur baby. I could offer care in my home but I have 4 cats of my own, and a dog. I think in the clients home would be best for the comfort of the animal. I am probably the best person you could have in your home.

My schedule is usually very flexible as long as I get it on the calendar! I will do what the client is comfortable with. If you want your animals crated at certain times. I can do that.

I am a very trustworthy person and can always send pictures and keep you updated and comfortable! I have even video chatted so a child would see her animals she was missing while on vacation!
“Emily is always enthusiastic. My dogs go nuts with excitation she comes to walk them. I'm very grateful that I can count on Emily when I can't take my furry kids out for a walk because of my recent surgery.”
“Alisha has a real connection with all animals. Our dog Moxie loves her! Alisha followed my instructions and gave me regular updates, including pics. I felt that all our animals (dog, cat and horses) were in good hands with her. I will definitely use Alisha again in the future!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 10 years, providing consistent, attentive care for dogs of different sizes and personalities. My experience includes daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, administering oral medications, light grooming such as brushing, and, most importantly, giving plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, observant, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra exercise, gentle care, or simply companionship. I am currently working 5 days a week, and will be available on my days off. I miss dog sitting/dog walking as a hobby and would love to start doing it again. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs at my house, so I prefer to take care of the pets at the owners home. I would care for them by playing, taking them outside as needed, staying on a feeding schedule and possibly bathing if the owners request !

About: I’ve had pets in my life since I was 2 years old. My dog was my best friend from 2-16 yrs. I was raised on a mini farm and was lucky enough to care for horses, cows, pigs, chickens, several dogs, many cats and recently goats. Nothing brings me more happiness than being around our furry friends. Currently, we have 3 miniature poodle mixes, which we love beyond words. We recently adopted a St. Bernard/Pitbull mix. We have a big dog house 24’x12’ fully fenced to board big dogs. Medium 20 lbs to extra small dogs board/daycare inside our home. We offer an alternative to traditional boarding/daycare. Our dogs are family and guest dogs are welcomed to our family pack. Animals are my passion and bring me fulfillment and joy! Providing daycare and boarding is my profession. I worked a corporate job 35 years as a director in the health insurance field. After I was laid off I decided to not go back to the long hours and stress. Instead I dove head first into following my dream of opening a pet service business. I’ve taken my business experience and love for animals to the next level. I am excellent at following the care plan you give me. I want to take care of your pet as you would with as much love as I can give them. I understand the need for pet parents to travel or work knowing their pets are safe, exercised and loved. I offer a customized experience developed just for your dog.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 7 from small to big to giant, they are adorable and need love,attention, and someone to play with I'm currently working part-time in sales and I need extra money so I thought since I love animals let's do this because animals are my safe space I have a fenced yard, my room door is always closed so no other animals in the house mess with my cat or yours. I make sure all windows that can be pushed open are closed and when they are open I watch the Animals carefully

I do morning yoga so I prefer work that is either late morning, afternoon or early evening. I would go to your home. I have a vehicle so it makes it easy to get around town. I don’t offer sitting in my home.
“Alright... where to begin! Brian did a wonderful meet and greet with my boys (two newfoundlands) and walked them today without me..that may seem like a strange thing to say but Byron (my younger boy) refuses to go on a walk for anyone but me - not even my husband! He was perfectly fine on going on the walk with Sinjin (my older boy) and Brian. No temper tantrums, no refusal to walk. NONE of it. Brian took them on a good walk, they had fun and their were no problems.”
About: Hi! My name is Cathy, and ever since I was a little kid, I have had a huge fascination and connection with animals, specifically dogs. As a younging I'd spend my free time researching dog breeds for fun, and before I was old enough to work on Rover, I I hung up fliers advertising my own dog walking business. Since I love dogs so much, I have heaps of experience walking and pet sitting all kinds of dogs. From my late large dog, Quiver, a Flat-coated Retriever, to a medium sized Australian Shepard, to a Miniature Schnauzer. I will dedicate 100% of my attention and time to making sure your dog is always happy and healthy! I have years of experience caring for senior dogs. When I heard about my dog’s disease prognosis, I began hand cooking him meals chock full of cancer-fighting vegetables and supplements in addition to his dry food. This included (as seen in my photos) sweet potatoes, red cabbage, broccoli, turmeric, fish oil, mushroom powder, etc. The vet had projected he would only live another 2 months, with my care and the change of his food, he lived and loved over 2 more years! So if your dog has a special diet, do not hesitate to let me know. I am currently a student who mainly works from home so I have plenty of time and a wide open schedule to care for your precious pets. My house is smoke free, pet safe and pet friendly. You can rest assured your companion is safe, cared for and happy with me. I love dogs and dogs love me!
About: I have always loved dogs. I have cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. When dog sitting I mostly just do walks but can also play catch or frisbee with your dog if they enjoy that. I am available most days from 7am-11pm to walk your dog. I am very trustworthy, honest and reliable and will keep your dog in the best care possible. I live in Raleigh, NC and look forward to meeting you and your dog. I’m sure we’ll have fun during our time together :) *If you’re dog requires special diet, medications, or care I’m comfortable with whatever they need to be happy! Thanks, Brendan I work from home so would be happy to take care of your pet whenever is needed. Anytime 7am-11pm would be alright for me. Hopefully that sounds good to you! I live in an apartment complex. I’m walkable to several great parks nearby and would be happy to spend some time there with your dog :)

I am available all hours of the day on my available days. I do not have a fenced in yard but have area to walk your pet unless you prefer your home. I have a cat and hyper puppy of my own. I can accommodate to your pets needs and treat them like my own.

“Nate and Roxana are so nice and took good care of our boy. They have beautiful acreage with a pond where the dogs can have a blast. Our favorite part, our boy Charlie was freshly bathed before pick up. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Lindsay took such great care of Laramie for my 2 week trip! It was Laramie’s first time in boarding since she came to us in late 2025, so I was a bit anxious. Laramie is a pretty sensitive girl, and Lindsay was incredibly patient, gentle, and thoughtful with her. It was clear she really paid attention to what Laramie needed to feel comfortable and safe. I really appreciated how much care Lindsay put into helping her settle in and feel secure. Lindsay’s home and single-client at a time set-up was perfect for Laramie. Laramie ended up doing very well during her stay, which meant a lot to me. I’m so grateful for the kindness and attention Lindsay gave her, and I will absolutely trust her with Laramie again. I loved the updates, pictures, and videos that Lindsay sent. It gave me such joy knowing that Laramie was happy and well cared for!”
“Our pup had a fantastic time with Christianna! She took wonderful care of our dog. A trip to the lake with her family, walks and lots of play time with her two dogs - even allowed on the furniture 😊. I really appreciated the pics and texts reassuring me. I absolutely would use and recommend Christianna to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Bailey, Kyle and their pets are wonderful! Our dog had a blast running around their yard, meeting new buddies (their 2 dogs) and exploring a new part of town. It felt like he had so much fun he didn't want to come home and I can tell he is missing playing with other dogs now that he is home. We're excited to have Bailey and Kyle in our network when needed as they obviously understand pet behaviors and exceeded our expectations!”
“Cale did a wonderful job taking care of my pup! He sent daily updates and pictures, and my pup looked so happy playing with the other pups. I’m always nervous leaving my dog with a new sitter, but I quickly felt at ease after meeting Cale. Very kind and responds quickly, and he remembered all the details about my dog. I will definitely book again.”
“Jeremy was absolutely wonderful! He sent pictures constantly and I always knew our Nola was being taken care of. We highly recommend him and will use him again in the future”
“Bobbi was amazing with our two dogs when we were out of town for a week! She took them out multiple times a day on walks and had several other dogs around to play with them and keep them busy. She sent pictures/videos everyday and they always looked so happy and well taken care of! Will 100% use again if we go out of town! Best Rover experience we’ve had!”
“I have boarded my 3 dogs with Amanda twice now, and both times they were very well taken care of. I loved getting picture updates from Amanda at the end of each day. Really gave me peace of mind to know my dogs were in a good home and having a good time with the other dogs there. I look forward to boarding my dogs with Amanda again and would not hesitate to refer a friend! Thanks Amanda!!”
“I had to leave my dog for a longer period than I ever have before, and I was really nervous about it. That completely changed when I met Jerrie! She was so kind and understanding about my anxiety, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout my trip, she communicated consistently and sent photos, which made such a difference and helped me relax knowing my dog was in good hands. When I picked her up, it was clear my dog was happy to see me, but also that she had truly bonded with Jerrie and loved her. That meant everything to me. I will absolutely be using Jerrie from now on whenever I need to leave my dog. Highly recommend!”
“They provided excellent communication to me the entire way! The best boarding i have received from Rover. They went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was well taken care of when she was experiencing some separation anxiety overnight.”
“John was fabulous and took lovely care of our dog. Pictures and updates were appreciated. He let us know how she was becoming comfortable at his home and she loved the daily walks.”
“James and his wife went out of their way to provide Henry good care while I was away. They were happy to accommodate his supplements and treats that I brought He enjoyed outside time in their big yard with the other dogs. He made fast friends with one of the bigger dogs and they said they slept cuddled up - so good to hear! They kept in touch and were responsive as well as flexible about pickup. I feel they provide a warm haven for the dogs in their care and their experience in doing this goes a long way.”
“Scooby was treated like a king! Kayla’s kids always made sure he was nice and comfortable. Her husband took him on runs and he was made to feel like part of the family. We will definitely use Kayla again.”
“Craig and Angela were perfect host for Leo, my high energy Australian Shepherd. Leo enjoyed playing with Craig & Angela's Golden Retriever, Ellie, in their fully fenced back yard. I would not hesitate to board him again with them. Thanks Craig and Angela!!”
“Heather is wonderful! She kept our boys, Max and Stanley for four days. Gave daily photos and updates and was always available for questions prior to their stay. The boys were happy and well cared for and we definitely will book with Heather again for our future trips! Thanks so much!!”
“Ethan is great! I was very nervous leaving my little guy with him but he was confident and very prepared. He sent frequent photos and videos even though it was for one day. We will definitely be booking with him again!!”
