“Monika and Jeff were great hosts to our Lab Riley. They have a very large, fully fenced backyard which gave Riley lots of running room. Riley came home exhausted - which is always a good sign. Thanx!”


“Moose loved his stay with Alexis! She provided so many cute updates and made sure he lived his best life while being a guest in her home. I wish I could leave my sweet boy with her every time I travel.”


“Kayla’s was wonderful! She is very professional and treated my dogs with lots of love . They were bathed right before I picked them up to go home, which was a special treat. I highly recommend her. She was easy to communicate with and very kind. My dogs really enjoyed their stay. Kayla’s sent me lots of pictures too . Two thumbs up! I will definitely be booking with her again when I need a great place to board my dogs.”


“Helena gave so much love to our dog and she has a comfortable and trustworthy environment. I felt I did not need to worry while on vacation. She took detailed notes since our pet has a special diet, and she seemed to enjoy cuddling and exercising our pet.”


“Matt and Lou were wonderful hosts for Lou. They communicated throughout his stay and sent plenty of photos and videos. Lou was so worn out when we got home. I am so grateful for the care he received from them while I worked a stretch of 12 hour shifts.”


“Calvin and Donna have a love for dogs. It’s clear and obvious when you meet them and even more so when you pick up your pup from their first time with them. I am over joyed to have found them and 100% trust them with Franklin.”


“Katie did an amazing job with my two senior dogs. She took the time to meet with them before their stay to make sure that they would be comfortable. Katie sent me many photos during their visit. I would absolutely use her services again and recommend her highly. It is very clear that she is an animal lover and treats all of them like her own. Thank you for taking such good care of Lucky and Laci!”


“I wanted to say a big thanks to Jennifer for always taking care of my dog Josie while I’m away! She always sends great videos and pictures and you can tell is genuinely happy to care for your pet! I highly recommend her to anyone checking out her profile!”


“Jennessa and her partner has taken care of Leo on multiple occasions. They provided pics and updates and have quick response time. Leaving Leo with anyone else is difficult for me as he’s getting older but it brings me peace to know he’s in good hands when I’m traveling. Thank you for keeping Leo safe and cared for.”


“Jonathan was fantastic! He communicates quickly and sends photos! He and his partner took great care of Tito and Akos, two labs for 5 days! Tito even played fetch and had no GI issues. WOW! They pups loved them and had a blast. I will definitely schedule them again. Best sitters I have found on Rover. :)”


“Audre took such great care of our timid fur baby Joey while we were out of town. She was extremely kind, communicative and sent many photos & updates of our girl while we were away. She gave us such peace of mind knowing that our babe was in the best of hands throughout. Highly recommend!”


About: Over my years I have loved many a dog, most recently our beloved Teddybear. Training and love was my passion and providing smiles during eldercare visits. A well trained dog is a loved and happy dog. Lets chat on how I can give you the peace of mind while you are away! I have recently retired and would love to provide your furbaby the love and attention it deserves. Fur parents need a break too, so let me assist you with providing you some peace of mind I have a fenced and gated small backyard where business can be done, and a soft lap for cuddles and a recliner to share while we binge watch our shows

“I can’t believe what a great job Andrea and her family did taking care of our dog. They made me (and Charlie - our dog) feel so comfortable with leaving him. It was my first time leaving him with someone who’s not family, and it went wonderfully. You can tell they are true dog lovers and very accommodating - including with drop off and pick up times. Andrea was a great communicator and I cannot say enough good things. I can tell Charlie had a great time and seemed so at ease when we picked him up. Thank you again!”


“Brooke was so great with my French Bulldog! I got plenty of pictures and updates when I was away. She was so flexible when it came to picking him up and dropping him off. I would absolutely recommend her!”


“Robert was great! My dogs were tired and happy when picked up. Robert sent updates with photos and confirmed meal times. I had some things pop up that made my drop off/pick up time different than originally planned and Robert was very accommodating and easy to coordinate with. I'll use Robert again next time I'm in the Wilmington/CB area!”


“Jenny is amazing with Jackson. He always comes back so happy and well looked after. She goes above and beyond what is required. I consider myself and Jackson very lucky that we found her.”
