“Bridget did a wonderful job watching River for us. We received lots of pictures, videos of him playing and running around the yard. Both her dogs are amazing and friendly. Definitely recommend her and will use her services again in future. Thanks River and family”
“Dian is wonderful...so caring! My dog has seizures and she was perfectly fine caring for him! I will definately tell my friends about her, and I will use her services again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my Bernedoodle, Sydney, received while staying with David and his family during our week-long vacation. From our initial meeting, it was clear that David genuinely loves dogs and takes his responsibility as a pet sitter seriously. He carefully ensures that the dogs in his care are a good match in temperament, creating a comfortable and safe environment for everyone. Throughout Sydney’s stay, David kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Knowing Sydney was happy, comfortable, and well cared for made it easy to relax and enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend David and would happily book with him again in the future.”
“Jenni was great to work with for my pup’s care. She was responsive and clearly likes pups. My dog can have separation anxiety and not be willing to eat but he did well and seemed content. I would use her again and recommend to a friend”
“Sharon is so very kind and patient with the 4 legged babies. My dogs came home happy and tired. Her having a large, fenced in yard was awesome. I will definitely book Sharon again through Rover.”

My cat and dog are best friends, they’re very good boys and always welcoming others. Fenced yard with 0.6 acer backyard, so the dog friend can run and play outside.

“Kelsey took great care of my 2 dogs this week! (1 pitbull &1 frenchie) it was 5 nights , they played with them and kept them fed and happy the whole time and updated me randomly and also responded quickly if I had any questions about my babies!! She does have children which has previously been an anxiety point for my pit bull.. the kids were so friendly and patient and he played well with them all weekend! Overall really happy with the turnout and that he was able to play with children in a controlled environment! Will definitely use her if we go out of town again!🩷”
“Perfect person to watch your dogs. We just got back from our vacation and my puppy was with her for 11 days and she gave daily updates and pictures. She is very friendly and great at her job definitely recommend to go to her”
“Michelle was awesome for our giant furball / who otherwise is nervous of her own shadow (Jake, not Michelle)….we will definitely be booking again, as it was great comfort knowing Jake was in a “dog home” versus a kennel. Michelle watches several other very friendly dogs and Jake buddied up right away with all of them! The fenced in backyard was a great peace of mind as well! Thanks!”
“We have used Marcie multiple times now. We never have to worry with her. She takes wonderful care of our dog and spoils him like he is her own. She is super flexible with time last minute changes. We were gone on our dog’s birthday and she sent us pics of him getting special birthday dog treats! Can’t say enough good things!”
“Kelly is the absolute best! Anytime we have to go out of town, we know that our dog is in the best of hands. Constant updates and communication the entire time. We are worried that our dog is always sad to come home because she gets so spoiled staying with Kelly.”
“Hailey and Potato were wonderful hosts to our dogs, Marley and Luna. Luna is a bit shy and Luna was able to open uo and play with Potato. Hailey sent just enough photos and updates throughout the visit and was very accommodating with the scheduling. The girls came back extremely happy and had a wonderful time with their stay with Hailey. Her yard is perfect and she is very efficient with drop off and pickups. I would definitely have our girls stay with Hailey again!”
“Omg! What great people and cool setup they have for the dog. True dog lovers! Our Abby feel in love with them, between the walks, treats and attention we felt she was in heaven. We received about 30 pictures plus about ten videos. Several of them made us as a family laugh out loud because it showed how comfortable she was with them. I’d recommend them to anyone and have recommended them to our neighbor already.”
“Amanda was very responsive, respectful, and understanding. Unfortunately, my pup started showing some unexpected behavioral issues we hadn’t seen before, which led to ending the stay earlier than planned. Amanda quickly notified us and followed our instructions to ensure everyone stayed safe until we arrived for pickup.”
“Was nervous about boarding Stella since we’ve never done this. I appreciated the daily updates, pictures and walks that Stella thoroughly enjoys. It seems that Stella was right at home and probably didn’t mind her lengthy stay with Mackenzie & Jared. I know that if we needed to board Stella again we’d definitely choose Mackenzie!”
“Our dog seemed to enjoy his stay! The last minute availability was very appreciated and communication was great. We appreciated the updates and pictures while we were gone. Would definitely recommend and use again if we have another trip.”
“We were very pleased with the care that our dog received. We appreciated receiving updates during his stay. When we picked him up, he was relaxed and content. We will use Cris again when we need boarding for our dog.”

She is a fantastic sitter, I’ve gone to her 3 times for my dog and every time is she is fantastic! She sends lots of pictures and updates about how my dog is doing and it helps with being away from my dog. Would highly recommend going to Bridget if you need someone to look after your dog!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Wakeman home-away-from-home, packing:
