“Gina was absolutely great! She really cares about the pets she is sitting. She took our dog chance for the weekend and he went to her brother's farm, ran around and had the best time! He also got to play with other dogs in her area which he loves! She was great with sending pictures and checking in. Highly recommend and would definitely book with Gina again!”
“We have had the same dog sitter since our 5 year old dog was born. She was unavailable for our most recent vacation, so used Rover for the first time and ended up deciding to go with Bobbi (and her family) and have our 2 doggies stay with them for our time away. We had a quick meet and greet to make sure our 2 doggies got along well with her dog, which went great. Bobbi sent reassuring messages and pictures every single day of our 12 day trip. Typically when we pick our pups up from our other sitter, particularly after a longer trip like this, they cry with joy to see us... run all over with excitement they cannot contain. This time when we picked them up, they seemed happy to see us, but not nearly as excited as usual, which to us indicated they MIGHT have preferred to just continue to hang with Bobbi and crew. It honestly couldn't have went better! We are so happy to have found Bobbi!”
“Kristal and Scott were really great sitters. My Sophia was well taken care of and loved by them. She sent me updates on her and pictures almost on a daily basis. I would recommend them and use them in the future.”
“Clooney Marie was very well taken care of by Chase & Jessica. This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous at first. Highly recommend this couple. This dog mama was so happy my girl was in a good place with good people.”
“Anu and her family are so amazing! They have kept our dog, Nala, many times over the last year and each time is just as great as the first time! We are so thankful to know such a kind, caring, and attentive family. Thank you, Anu!”
“Zoe love, love, loves going to Bobbie and Clark's, She fits right in with their dogs, huskies, and their family loves on her. I can't say enough how much she enjoys her time at their home.”
“Krystal's love of dogs is evident and her current bestie, Duke, was a welcoming partner! We left our sweet Piper with Krystal for a week and Piper seemed to adjust well and was in good spirits when we picked her up. I think she even missed Krystal and Duke for a day or so after we returned home! Krystal kept us abreast of how Piper was doing and was responsive to our questions. I was amazed by how unfazed she was by the cold, wet weather that hung over the Fox Valley the week we were away; seemingly taking the additional 4 muddy paws in stride! We would happily re-book with Krystal the next time we need to leave town.”
“Nikki went above and beyond watching our dog this weekend! You can tell she genuinely cares for animals and was great at communicating and provided lots of updates and pictures along the way! We felt comfortable and safe out of town knowing our dog was in great care and having fun with Nikki and her dog, Nelson. We would definitely book with Nikki again in the future!”
“This was my first time boarding my dog Remi. I was very nervous but Frank and Julie were excellent. They texted me They sent me pictures I had no worries in the world. I knew that Remi was well taken care of and happy. I would definitely recommend them, I will definitely take Remy back there again 5 star plus. Thank you both.”
“Sue & Mark were the perfect hosts for Lucy. Lucy is shy but she warmed up to them right away. They welcomed her into their home and kept me updated. I will be scheduling with them again in the near future.”
“Both Cate and Andy were so kind and loving to my two dogs when we went away for the weekend. They welcomed them into their home. The dogs both had good playtime in their beautiful fenced backyard. Cate and Andy sent pictures and video during their stay to keep me updated! They were so wonderful.”
“Samantha was great. Easy to schedule a meet and greet as well as drop off and pick up time. Very very responsive when I wanted to check in on our pup or had questions. Max came home happy. Will definitely rebook and recommend. Thanks Samantha!”
“Mary was amazing!! My dog does not normally like new people but he loved Mary and she took great care of him. I even had to book last minute because of a funeral. I was able to be fully present with my family at our time of loss because my dog was so well cared for. Thanks Mary!!”
“Julie took the BEST care of our little guy on our first trip away from him since we got him. She took many pictures and shared them with us and just treated him like one of her own pets. We appreciated seeing how much love he received while we were gone!”
“For a recent week - long vacation, we left our 3 year old golden doodle with Jeff. This was our first time using Rover and leaving her in someone else's home. After an initial meet and greet, we felt very comfortable with Jeff and Ember loved his fenced in yard. We liked the photo and written updates we received while vacationing. Jeff provided daily walks and outside time. He respected Ember's schedule and tried to maintain her schedule. In addition to our toys and treats, he also provided some. We will definitely use Jeff's boarding for future get aways.”

“Travis was fantastic with our kitties! We hired him to stay with them and we couldn’t be happier with his services. We got multiple updates with pictures, and came home to a well kept home. Very reliable, great communication, and overall just a very nice person whose love for animals is obvious when you meet him. We’ll hire him again. 10 / 10 would recommend Travis.”
“The girls loved Sara and remembered her from the first time she watched the girls. I’m so glad they both remember her and love getting attention from her. We had a different setup for one of our cats for dinner and she was good with the change from the last booking we had.”
“Jenna did great and was very flexible. She even got some pets in with my rabbit who is usually wary of strangers or people in general so im very happy with the job she did!”
About: I've had cats in my house my entire life, with the exception of college. They are my heart and soul. I am the first person my friends & family think of when they need a cat sitter. I have cared for cats of all ages, from kitten to seniors. I also have experience administering medications. As a long time cat momma, I have decades of experience with these wonderful fluff balls!
“My regular pet sitter was unavailable so I am a first time Rover user. Briana took the time necessary to understand Chewy’s personality and needs. Chewy is a very shy cat but came out for pets during Briana’s visits. I will definitely book Briana again if my pet sitter is busy.”
“Jada was great with my cat. I can always tell when Lucy receives a lot of attention while we’re gone because she is not yelling (meowing loudly) at us when we arrive home! Jada was also willing to bring in mail, porch packages and do some watering of outdoor plants.”
“Rebecca was very communicative about any questions she had with our cats (Hazelnut & Pistachio). We were very impressed with pistachio being friendly and social with Rebecca on visit one as she is skiddish when it comes to strangers. There was a day during the booking that the visit of the time needed to be adjusted and it was communicated before our booking and again during to make sure the feedings were rescheduled accordingly.”
“Great experience! Sara took wonderful care of my pet, always arrived within the timeframe, spent the entire allotted time giving love and affection, sent pics, asked great questions. Will definitely use Sara again!”
“Kari did a wonderful job with my pups! She was extremely responsive and helpful, even when my weekend plans went awry and we came home early. I will definitely be reaching out again if I need someone to stop in to care for my dogs.”
“Michelle was fantastic! She kept me posted with pictures at the visit times. She also talked me through what to expect while using Rover since it was my first time using the service. Thank you so much Michelle!”
“Nemiah did a great job caring for our cat while we were away for a week. The daily reports were lovely to get, and she spent time with him so that he would feel comfortable and not feel like he had been abandoned. We will definitely be reaching out to Nemiah again whenever we need to be out of town.”
About: I have extensive hands‑on experience caring for cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs. From shy, slow‑to‑warm kitties to confident social butterflies, I understand how to read feline body language and adjust my approach to make every cat feel safe and respected. My care includes feeding routines, litter box maintenance, enrichment play, grooming support, and administering medications when needed. I’m attentive to subtle changes in behavior—whether it’s appetite, energy, or mood—so I can keep your cat comfortable and content while you’re away.
About: I've been taking care of dogs on my own since middle school. We've always had a family dog in the household as well as friends and neighbors who would need help with their little ones. I have a BS in Animal Science, have worked as an emergency vet assistant/triage tech for the last 3 years, and have some professional dog training experience. I currently have 2 guinea pigs, and a 2-year-old AND 1-year-old pitty/lab mix that love to come to work with me and go on all sorts of outdoor adventures! Needless to say, my life revolves around animals and I don't know what the world would be like without them! I would love to get to know your little one and be there for them (and you!) when needed! Good communication and planning helps me arrange my schedule and make myself available for your needs. I often have days off during the week so I can spend time with our furry friends while their families are at work. Having worked in an emergency pet hospital keeps me on my toes and I always put safety first. When it comes to walking outside, I double check collar/harness every time to ensure a secure yet comfortable fit that can't be slipped out of. I also know dog body language and signs of illness to monitor and keep people and pets safe!
“Thank you so much for everything you did to help with Colby! Jeanne stepped up beyond our original agreement when we had flight cancelation issues that meant we were 2 days late getting home. It was such a relief knowing that our cat was well cared for and had great rapport with her.”
About: If your smaller non-shedding dog (up to 40 lbs) does not care for other pets, I'm your sitter! There are no other pets in my house, and I specialize in dogs who do not like other animals. I have owned and loved dogs my entire adult life. In retirement I've chosen not to own one, but I miss those little guys so much and would love to love on your precious pet. I am retired and can fully care for your smaller (up to 40#), potty-trained, non-shedding dog. On weekends in the summer I may talk to you about your friend joining me at my camper. I will provide care for your smaller non-shedding dog without other animals in my home. Perfect for those cuddlers who would rather not have competition for my attention!
“Caitlin was amazing, this was my first time using this app amd at last minute request she will willing to help. Very friendly and great communication. My cat looked like she had a great time and will use her again!”

“Great experience, Ally did a great job watching Bart. She was very accommodating with us. After meeting both her an Coy we felt very comfortable leaving Bart in her care. We would definitely let her watch him again.”
“Emily took such good care of our Obi! Emily and her family took him in like their own! She sent pictures and updates throughout the day and was very attentive to all our puppy’s needs 😊 🩷 Would highly recommend Emily for all your pets needs!”
“Bobbie and Clark were so good in taking care of Diggory! He gets scared in meeting new people but he quickly warmed up to them and their dogs and came home very tired! Cannot say enough good things about them!”
“We had a last-minute Rover request, and Bobbi responded quickly and made booking easy. Even though it was a short stay, we could tell our dog had a great time especially with Mercy, their adorable pug! Bobbi shared updates and photos, and Nova seemed to really enjoy their spacious backyard. Bobbi was so kind and welcoming. We’d absolutely recommend her to others!”
“My Jojo loved her stay with Maria today! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. I appreciated all the timely communication- even before we arrived. Amazing service. Thank you so much!”
“Cristy was amazing! Her home was so cute and tidy. She has a sweet little dog that played so well with my dog whom normally doesn’t care much for others. Cristy was kind, communicative, and flexible.”
“Highly recommend Chelsea! She was very easy to communicate with and was able to take Voss on short notice when we had to be in town unexpectedly. My dog had a fun day playing with her dogs in the fenced back yard and house. She even trimmed his nails for us which was really great. We’ll be back if we need care in Oshkosh again!”
“I couldn’t have been happier with the care and attention Breanna gave to our pets. The whole process was so easy and Breanna was very accommodating. She sent pictures and messages to let me know how our babies were doing and allowed us to have a great day without worrying about our pets. She is a very sweet girl with an obvious love for animals. An overall outstanding experience; I would highly recommend her!!!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who recently retired, and I’m looking to fill my days with some extra puppy love. My pup, Cullen, and I are a duo that loves company. Since I’m home throughout the day, your dog will have constant supervision, plenty of backyard time, and all the belly rubs they can handle. We’re looking for friendly companions to join us for neighborhood strolls and afternoon naps. Your pup won’t just be "staying" here—they’ll be part of the family! Since I am retired, my schedule is completely dedicated to pet care. Your dog will enjoy 24/7 companionship and a consistent routine, as I am home full-time to provide potty breaks, backyard play, and plenty of cuddles. Cullen and I are very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and we look forward to a Meet & Greet to ensure a perfect match! We offer a fully fenced-in backyard featuring a beautiful koi pond. To ensure a safe and harmonious environment for everyone, I look for guest dogs who have a solid foundation in basic obedience and a 'gentle' temperament around water and wildlife. My own dog loves making new friends, and I prioritize active supervision to ensure all 'fur babies'—and my fish—stay happy and safe!
“Shelby, her family and thier dogs welcomed Nala in on short notice and treated her like one of their own. This was our first experience leaving our puppy with a non-family member and we couldn’t be more happy. Shelby’s home is filled with love and we couldn’t have been more pleased with her care of Nala. We will definitely use Shelby again!”
“Emma was great, she went above & beyond to make sure Indagos stay was great! She's so good with him. I'm so thankful she likes him & Indago liked her. I was worried being a blue healer with lots of energy. Only God could provide such a great dog sitter for him. 💛🐕💛”
“Shanna is the best! Such great care given to our pup. He absolutely loves getting to play at her house. He’s so excited the minute we get there because he gets lots of exercise and playtime!”
“This is the second time I’ve booked with Don for doggy daycare. He sends photo and video updates throughout the day and takes time to ensure my dog is having fun at him home! There is lots of space for him to run and play outside. Don is the best when it comes to communicating and caring for my pup.”
About: After being an elementary teacher for the last 15 years I have decided to stay home and join Rover while my kids are in school! I will of course be available after school and weekends too! I have a deep love for all animals so please trust me to take care of your fur babies like they were my own! I taught elementary school for 15 years and we moved to the area recently.

I am happy to visit your pets in your own home and stop by anytime for a walk or just for a needed potty break! I also welcome pets to my own home :)
“My dogs had an amazing day! I got updates and pictures throughout the day! They got to go for a walk! My youngest dog was sleeping less than 5 minutes into our drive home. I would give 10 stars if I could!!”
About: Please read the entire profile. I did grow up with a Dalmatian dog. My dad was a firefighter, and came home with Pepper Christmas morning. My sister had a mini goldendoodle. I would stop daily after work around 3:45pm to play and take walks. I took a separation package from my employer 5/1/25 and now would like to offer walks, daycare, drop in visits and boarding . With boarding, For larger dogs, they WILL be crated at night. Your dog will be crated when I play pickleball in the mornings. I do have a crate(s). Please note if sending a request there may be a delay in responding due to pickleball between 9:30 - 12:30 approximate times. I currently have two dog walking appointments from 11:45am -1:45pm Monday-Thursday. Having retired 5/1/25, I have the time to provide loving care, playtime and walks with your pet. I will provide pictures and updates to you. No fence but can play fetch in the front/backyard or take your dog to dog park if they are ok with it. Please provide details or special needs. I look forward to providing belly rubs, snuggles and loving care.
About: I’m a dog person through and through! I’ve only ever owned dogs my whole life, and I’d never have it any other way. Training them, playing with them, taking care of them, it all brings me so much joy. To me, dogs are one of life’s greatest gifts, a true blessing from God. They love without conditions and make every day a little brighter. I wouldn’t trade a single wagging tail or muddy paw print for anything. I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I’m great with communication and always happy to keep you in the loop. Just give me a quick call or text, and I’d be more than glad to update you on how your dog is doing. Your pup will feel right at home with me! I have a fenced yard and a loving Australian Shepherd named Stryda, who’s sweet and playful with all dogs. Your dog will always have fresh water, plenty of playtime, and a comfy, safe space to relax. I’ll keep them active, well cared for, and showered with attention throughout the day. Whether it’s a good play session, a cozy nap, or just some cuddles, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own, and I’m always happy to keep you updated however you’d like.

About: I have over 6 years of animal experience with dogs, bunnies, and cats. I am active and ready to walk your dogs and play with them! I currently have 2 job working at Target and Nakashimas. I am available after 1pm on Mondays and Saturdays. I am available all day on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday mornings and Sunday morning (6am-11-30am). I am also flexible for last minute bookings.

About: I’ve spent several years providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and relaxed while their families are away. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment so every pet feels comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly rhythm, especially since I work from home three days a week. On those WFH days, I’m able to offer flexible, consistent attention—perfect for pets who enjoy companionship, regular check‑ins, or a steady routine. I build feeding times, walks or play sessions, potty breaks, and general wellness checks around my work blocks, making sure pets get the care and interaction they need throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I plan visits intentionally to keep each pet’s routine stable. Whether it’s morning care, midday enrichment, or evening check‑ins, I make sure every pet gets predictable, comforting attention. Because I’m used to balancing a hybrid schedule with pet responsibilities, I’m very organized and reliable about maintaining consistent care all week long. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine, environment, and comfort exactly the way they’re used to. I follow the owner’s instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, medication needs, and any household rules—so pets feel secure and stress‑free. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, whether they need extra play, quiet companionship, or a slow, gentle approach. I keep the home tidy and respectful, making sure food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes or potty routines are maintained, and any messes are handled right away. I also pay attention to small details like closing gates, locking doors, turning lights on or off as requested, and keeping the home feeling lived‑in and safe. Throughout the stay, I send updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing.
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was ten years old. From walking, feeding, caring for and playing with my own dogs and cats, to walking and dog sitting neighbors' and friends' pets, I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, activity levels, and sizes. Additionally, I have experience providing medication to both cats and dogs, having had pets who required medication. I'm currently a full-time college student. Outside of school I don't work, so my afternoons, evenings, and weekends are usually pretty open to stop by and let pets out, walk them, feed them, spend time with them, or whatever else you may need. When I go back home to visit, I love being able to walk my dogs, play with them, and spend time with my cat. Pet care has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I absolutely love my two dogs and cat and enjoy taking care of them. I treat all other animals as they are my own, showing them the same love, care, and respect that I show my own pets.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages since I was in elementary school. I have had family dogs all my life and now I have 2 dogs of my own. I raised one as a puppy and then adopted his brother about 2 years later. Raising my dogs has educated me in all the needs a dog possibly needs from food/water to stimulation to exercise. I’m around many weekends so I have a lot of flexibility and open time to drop in and take care of your dog! Whether it’s taking them for longs walks or just hanging out and keeping them company. If my dogs could talk they would probably tell you they are the kings of the house. The dogs in my home are treated like humans. Nothing but the best. They are allowed on furniture, beds, toys are out all day long. Having very high energy dogs of my own, I often go on many walks and hikes all around the area.

About: I am very proud to be a "fear free handler". That's a big thing for me, if an animal is uncomfortable, I am 100% uncomfortable along with them.. learning their little quirks and finding ways to do things in the best way possible for that specific animal is what I do and I absolutely love doing it. I promise your animal will be cared for deeply while in my care. My passion has always been working with animals, providing them with the care and respect they deserve and I have extensive experience in the field. I’ve worked in horse barns, animal shelters, and dog boarding facilities, and I’m skilled in administering all types of medications, including insulin. Whether it’s feral cats or reactive dogs, I have the patience and expertise to help them adjust and thrive, including building trust with new people. I understand how intimidating change can be for animals, and I’m dedicated to making those transitions as smooth as possible. I’ve dedicated countless unpaid hours to caring for animals, driven solely by my love and commitment to their well-being. When you entrust me with your pet, I promise to care for them as if they were my own, providing compassion, patience, and unwavering dedication in every situation. I am pretty open with my schedule. I will love your babies like my own. I do work mon-thurs 3-9pm and Saturday 11-4. I am a perfectionist. If you tell me you want something done in a specific way or at a certain time, please let me know!! I'd be more than happy to jump through hoops to give your baby(s) what they need when and how they need it. I will put your animal above everything else, that's what I'm paid for and that's what I love doing.

About: I have been a dedicated animal lover my entire life. I understand that leaving your pets behind is difficult, which is why I make it my mission to minimize their stress. I treat every dog as if they were my own by providing them a safe, engaging, and stress-free environment. Whether it is an overnight house sitting, daytime drop-ins, or energizing dog walks, I tailor every visit to your pet’s routine, ensuring their comfort, happiness, and your total peace of mind. I am currently working part-time, which will ensure that I have plenty of time to play and take care of all of your dogs' needs. Choosing the right pet sitter is about trust.

About: I have had a love for dogs my entire life! I was blessed to grow up with the sweetest Black Lab and my family welcomed a toy poodle to our family when I was 12. In the last couple of years, the family dogs have gone from 2 to 6 with the addition of my in-laws. I am at my happiest when we are all in the same house, each of us with a dog on our lap or at our feet. I don't know what life is like without a dog in it! I lost my 4 year old mini dachshund unexpectedly in 2020. Since then my love for dogs has only grown. I would love to hangout with your furbaby! I currently work a hybrid schedule, working from home most days. My role allows me flexibility throughout the day. I would love to fit in a couple of dog walks and cuddles into my schedule. All dogs are part of the family in my home. I will never treat them differently. I grew up with runners, so have no fear that keeping your dogs safe and home is my number one priority.
About: I’ve had and taken care of many different breeds in my lifetime, mostly medium to smaller mixed breeds and I’ve also taken care of doodles I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats that I spend my days with. Always start with a morning walk down our local hiking trail We have gates to keep them in safe spaces including keeping our daughter away from them if necessary but she’s also very gentle with them
About: I have a lifetime of experience in loving animals, I’ve had dogs my entire life. I am loving, gentle and kind and will care for your family members as you would! I have had some medical issues so am currently not working and am available whenever your pets need a sitter! I have open an availability currently. I have a big back yard, no fence but enough of an area to safely play outside on long leash if that’s an option for your animals.
About: I have had animals since I was a newborn, surrounded by cats, dogs, mice, you name it! Continuing my love for animals, I work full time at a doggy daycare, which I have been at for over a year. I have 2 animals of my own, and work at a doggy daycare. Pet care is LITERALLY a part of my daily routine! Right now, I do have a fairly packed schedule. However, I am 100% willing to make time. :) I have a massive yard, with 20 ft. leashes to roam. I also own a friendly chocolate lab, though he doesn’t play much with other animals. I am able to adjust to any potential special needs or wants!
About: I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am looking share my experience with taking care of pets and help people feel at ease when they leave their furry friends for a day or more. My energy level allows me to play with your dog and go on walks and hikes without a problem. Most dogs I sit for are usually pretty worn out when I leave. For me the most rewarding part is being able to show dogs love when the owners are unable to. I love being able to snuggle with the dogs when they are tired or play with them when they are excited and full of energy. Going on walks or hikes is always an adventure for both of us and it allows me not only to exercise the dog, but also see more of our beautiful community. I would love to meet your dog any day of the week! I currently work in a hybrid role from a physical office location and from home. I try to keep my calendar updated as best I can to show the days I work remote as free to watch your pup as well I currently live in a home with a fenced in yard for the dogs to play freely together and have so much fun in a safe environment.

“Gina was absolutely great! She really cares about the pets she is sitting. She took our dog chance for the weekend and he went to her brother's farm, ran around and had the best time! He also got to play with other dogs in her area which he loves! She was great with sending pictures and checking in. Highly recommend and would definitely book with Gina again!”
“We have had the same dog sitter since our 5 year old dog was born. She was unavailable for our most recent vacation, so used Rover for the first time and ended up deciding to go with Bobbi (and her family) and have our 2 doggies stay with them for our time away. We had a quick meet and greet to make sure our 2 doggies got along well with her dog, which went great. Bobbi sent reassuring messages and pictures every single day of our 12 day trip. Typically when we pick our pups up from our other sitter, particularly after a longer trip like this, they cry with joy to see us... run all over with excitement they cannot contain. This time when we picked them up, they seemed happy to see us, but not nearly as excited as usual, which to us indicated they MIGHT have preferred to just continue to hang with Bobbi and crew. It honestly couldn't have went better! We are so happy to have found Bobbi!”
“Anu and her family are so amazing! They have kept our dog, Nala, many times over the last year and each time is just as great as the first time! We are so thankful to know such a kind, caring, and attentive family. Thank you, Anu!”
“Krystal's love of dogs is evident and her current bestie, Duke, was a welcoming partner! We left our sweet Piper with Krystal for a week and Piper seemed to adjust well and was in good spirits when we picked her up. I think she even missed Krystal and Duke for a day or so after we returned home! Krystal kept us abreast of how Piper was doing and was responsive to our questions. I was amazed by how unfazed she was by the cold, wet weather that hung over the Fox Valley the week we were away; seemingly taking the additional 4 muddy paws in stride! We would happily re-book with Krystal the next time we need to leave town.”
“Nikki went above and beyond watching our dog this weekend! You can tell she genuinely cares for animals and was great at communicating and provided lots of updates and pictures along the way! We felt comfortable and safe out of town knowing our dog was in great care and having fun with Nikki and her dog, Nelson. We would definitely book with Nikki again in the future!”
“This was my first time boarding my dog Remi. I was very nervous but Frank and Julie were excellent. They texted me They sent me pictures I had no worries in the world. I knew that Remi was well taken care of and happy. I would definitely recommend them, I will definitely take Remy back there again 5 star plus. Thank you both.”
“Both Cate and Andy were so kind and loving to my two dogs when we went away for the weekend. They welcomed them into their home. The dogs both had good playtime in their beautiful fenced backyard. Cate and Andy sent pictures and video during their stay to keep me updated! They were so wonderful.”
“Samantha was great. Easy to schedule a meet and greet as well as drop off and pick up time. Very very responsive when I wanted to check in on our pup or had questions. Max came home happy. Will definitely rebook and recommend. Thanks Samantha!”
“Julie took the BEST care of our little guy on our first trip away from him since we got him. She took many pictures and shared them with us and just treated him like one of her own pets. We appreciated seeing how much love he received while we were gone!”
“For a recent week - long vacation, we left our 3 year old golden doodle with Jeff. This was our first time using Rover and leaving her in someone else's home. After an initial meet and greet, we felt very comfortable with Jeff and Ember loved his fenced in yard. We liked the photo and written updates we received while vacationing. Jeff provided daily walks and outside time. He respected Ember's schedule and tried to maintain her schedule. In addition to our toys and treats, he also provided some. We will definitely use Jeff's boarding for future get aways.”
“Melissa and her family did such a great job with Tucker while we were out of state for a family wedding. Tucker tends to have separation anxiety when away from his people, but he was very at home with Melissa! Thank you for providing peace of mind while we were away!”
“Chelsea and her family have been watching Bowser and Bali regularly and it is always such a comfort to know they are in such good hands while I’m traveling for work. They love coming over and runs to the door every time we get here. And Chelsea is so thoughtful in the way that she will help to make sure that the visit goes well. We could not recommend Chelsea more! She is amazing!!”
“Mitzi was so well treated. She was walked and made to feel at home while staying there. I highly recommend Caitlin and Samuel. They are very friendly and I plan to keep them in mind for future needs.”
“This is the second time Shanna takes care of Galaxy. Great as always! Send sweet pictures and updates everyday. Very flexibility about pick up and drop off time. I am also glad to see Galaxy making so many different friends at Shanna’s house! :)”
“Brooke is so sweet and our dog Milton is so comfortable with her. It was his first time boarding with someone who isn't family and we're so glad it was with Brooke. Will definitely book again.”
“Our young golden retriever had a great time with Susan and her girls and their dog Oreo. Susan sent daily updates and pictures, which was so nice. We will take Gatsby to vacation there the next time our family goes away.”
“We were so grateful to have found Annie! She is a dog lover and excellent at providing updates and pictures. We felt Celeste was in a safe, caring place and will use her services in the future.”
