“Chayna was wonderful. This was a last minute booking and she responded promptly. She kept us informed with how he was doing, and sent pictures and videos. All the pictures showed Butters having a great time making new friends and being loved on. I didn't feel one ounce of fear leaving him with her. I highly recommend, and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Chayna!”


“I cannot say enough good things about Tevin and our experience with him. One of my dogs is very skittish & unpredictable and the other can be reactive - both of them get very nervous with new people and new environments. During the meet & greet, Tevin was patient, listening to my concerns and answering all of my questions, and had such a calm, settling demeanor with my dogs. During their stay, he allowed them time to adjust and gave them an environment in which they were able to feel as little stress as possible. I love that they spent lots of time outside and had plenty of room to move around. His set up is well thought out, anllowing him to be able to care for several dogs of differing temperaments. Tevin also sent pictures during their stay and quickly responded to texts. In short, this was the perfect environment for my nervous pups (and their nervous mom!) - but I think any dog would thrive here. Tevin’s education, experience, and understanding of dogs allow him to tailor each dog’s stay to their individual needs and preferences. I would recommend Tevin without reservation to anyone.”


“Tracey had excellent communication and excellent care for our dogs. When we first arrived our dogs went right up to her and were happy to be with her. She had a small fenced in yard which our goldendoodle enjoyed. We would definitely use her for dog sitting again.”


“Yami is wonderful and our dog Bailey loves her. My puppy was sad when she came back cause she missed them soo much! I will definitely use them again and will also recommend to my friends.”


“Usually have my dog house sat instead of boarded in someone else’s home. Was a little nervous but Joshua did a great job! Sent me updates and pictures and my dog had a great time with him.”


“Tammy does a great job with a new "visitor" he was not nervous because she made our little guy feel very comfortable. We have used Tammy's services several times and will keep doing so.”


“We left our sweet Maggie with Nataly for a few days and could not be happier with her! We get nervous to leave Maggie with anyone but our vet. Nataly was so kind and understanding of our fears. She had us bring Maggie a few days ahead so she could sniff things out and meet Nataly. While we were gone Nataly sent us nightly updates on the complete schedule of the day along with pictures of Maggie so we could see her! Maggie seemed happy! Nataly was wonderful for Maggie and our family! We will be calling her again!”


“Thank you, Frida, for taking such good care of our dog while on vacation. She is the best; she kept us updated every day even though we were distraught since it was our first time using Rover, but after the first day, we knew she was in good hands. We will hire her again. Great job ??”


“This is the second time my dog has stayed with Julie and he loves it there! They make sure to give him exercise and make sure he is comfortable. Highly recommend!”


“Stephanie is the absolute best! This was our 2nd time using her. The first time we used her she was super accommodating to our schedule. Tatum absolutely loves going over and he comes back smelling fresh! 😊 We will be booking again & again!”


“Katelyn was fantastic with my 15 y/o pomeranian. She provided a sense of calm and kindness that I knew my little old guy was in good hands. She sent me photos and updates throughout his stay to include his walks. Highly recommend!”



“We were so happy to find Yuwadee! She was kind enough to take time out of her busy day for a meet and greet ahead of time. She has a wonderfully spacious fenced-in yard to allow for plenty of exercise and opportunities for smelling enrichment. We have two dogs who need a lot of attention in different ways. Tosh is a 17.5-year-old Doberman mix who is on many medications and has some incontinence and mobility issues. Trying to get him to take all his pills is a major, time-consuming challenge. Our other dog, Tatsu (Japanese for little dragon) is a 5-year-old English Setter with enough energy to run 18 miles a day given the chance. She is also an escape artist and gets into everything. Given their opposing tendencies, I find boarding them at even the best facilities doesn’t give them the individual attention they need. Yu did such a great job of getting Tosh’s medication in him that he was walking the best I’ve seen him in years when I picked him up! Yu was very communicative before and during our trip to keep us updated and fine-tune their typical routines to understand our dogs better. We look forward to using her services in the future when we travel. I can’t recommend Yu enough! I would give her ten stars if I could!”


“Amy is awesome, had a last minute pivot in travel plans and she was easy to communicate with and understanding of our situation. It’s been hard finding a dog sitter in my area who we can trust. She sends updates, and photos which always settles us when we’re away.”



“Again I wish to say thanks to Brian and Yui, who has been a great sitter for me with my dog Tre. Brian and Yui has been a great help to me when I need to leave my dog with someone. they have been just wonderful and professional.”


“This was a really good experience. My Nova had never gone to a dog sitter before so we were a little nervous. Helena was amazing! She kept us up to date with pictures and messages. We were running behind schedule on our way back and she was accommodating. We will definitely use her again! Thanks Helenia, we really appreciated you and all you did!”


“Natalie is MARVELOUS! We were gone for a week. She sent us a picture daily, was very attentive to our dogs needs, and was great to interact with! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone! My dog is already ready to go back!”


“Josie was wonderful! She was very accommodating for our young German Shepherd, as we were out of town for a few days. I was able to travel in peace knowing Nova was in great care! She even accommodated a late pickup.”
