“Michelle did a wonderful job watching our boy Remy! He can be very shy and nervous in new environments but Michelle made him feel right at home. Loved getting the updates and photos while we were out of town. Highly recommend and will book again :)”


“This is the first time I used Rover and left Hercules to be taken care by someone who was not part of the family. He is a senior and very into his ways so I was apprehensive about how he would take it. From the photos Cyndi provides daily I could tell in the first day he was relaxed and really into Cyndi. She took a great care of him and it was great to have daily updates and a place where he does need to share with other dogs. I would highly recommend Cyndi and I will definitely book more stays with her.”

“Our 5 year old lab had a great time staying with Matt. He enjoyed playing with Matt’s dog plus the way other guests. He came home happy and TIRED. Next time we need someone to watch him we’ll definitely hope he can stay with Matt again.”

Kevin and Cierra took such wonderful care of Goose while we were out of the country. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in a loving, attentive home. We especially appreciated the regular updates and all the sweet photos bc it made being away from him so much easier. Goose came home happy and relaxed, which says everything. We would absolutely work with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, reliable sitters!

This was our first time using Rover and we were very happy to find Julie and Eric. Their communication was great, they were very enthusiastic, kind, and attentive with Tanner. We felt comfortable knowing he was being well cared for while we were away. Tanner was his normal, happy self when we picked him.

Kailey took great care of our 4 year old lab grand-dog, " Hank." We needed last minute help with Hank and Kailey responded and was able to take him for a same day reservation. He spent two nights with Kailey and we greatly appreciate her flexibility and the care she took of him. We ill definitely use her in the future.

Elana was wonderful and we are so lucky she was able to help us with a last minute holiday boarding for our older dog! She went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable and happy and even shared her own dog's new toys with our dog on Christmas so that he would be happy and less anxious. She was extremely communicative and asked good questions beforehand that we appreciated since it was clear she had been around dogs a lot and knew how to keep them safe, happy, and well cared for. She sent us regular updates and pictures and even accommodated a last minute request to extend the stay a day longer. Would recommend.

Carolina was so attentive and caring with Tuna and really treated her like her own ❣️ I had to go on a long trip but Carolina's consistent updates and photos left me feeling really reassured that tuna was being cared for and was having a great time as well. Care instructions were diligently followed and her experience in caring for dogs really shines ⭐✨ would definitely recommend her boarding services and will be booking with Carolina again for future needs for sure!
