Cailey was amazing. Always kept me in the loop on how my pup was doing. Sent lots of pictures and videos. My dog enjoyed himself and will continue to use you when I have to make trips. Thanks for everything.

Great support for our separation anxiety pup. We needed a place where he can go while we travel and run errands as he has severe separation anxiety. They did a great job getting him comfortable with the house and the other dogs. We will be coming back!

This was our first experience using Rover. Hallie was wonderful! She treated our pup like her own, keeping us updated. He and her dogs became best friends, and everyday was a playdate! We could not be happier. We look forward to using her again!

Jacob and his wife helped provide a stress free time while I was out of town. Both of them were extremely friendly, helpful, and reassuring. They sent plenty of pictures and updates while I was gone, great communication. Leeroy was in a great mood when I picked him up. I will totally be using Jacob and his wife again in the future.

Great boarding experience! Apollo definitely loved staying and playing with her 2 dogs. Rachel sent pictures and updates regularly and accommodated when my plane got delayed for half a day. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. She seemed to love Apollo just as much as I do. Definitely recommend and I will be using Rachel for any future stays!

Katie and her fur baby Ruth were absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for watching our Luna. During the whole stay Katie sent many many updates of pictures and videos which helped put our mind at such ease! Katie having a house with a fenced in yard was a key part that we were looking for and Ruth (her goldendoodle) was such an awesome bonus! Thank you Katie so much and we will truly rebook again if we are in need in the Columbus area!!

Ellen was awesome! She is very kind and friendly. She communicated very well before and during my fur baby's stay with her. She gave lots of updates with pictures which was great. This was our first time leaving him and she made the experience awesome. I would highly recommend her and would definitely love to use her services again!

Debra was amazing with my 2 rambunctious fur babies! I've never used a sitter that I didn't know before and was a little nervous but she made me feel much more comfortable at the meet and greet. She took excellent care of them and sent lots of updates throughout the week. My silly 6 month old pup managed to scratch her face on her crate and Debra noticed immediately when it wasn't healing right and spent half a night at the emergency veterinary practice I work at in order for her to get some antibiotics and a cone. Even the veterinarian I work with made a comment to me as to how great of care she took of my pup!

I have known Erica for the last 8 years. She has watched my 3 dogs many, many times and they absolutely love her! She also has 2 rescue dogs of her own that are so loved and have the best care. Erica is extremely responsible, reliable and most of all, loving. You will never meet a nicer person. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pets.

Kelsey S. is a natural born dog whisperer. When I first met her dog, Kitana, I’ve never seen a more well behaved dog in my life. On top of that, the amount love and attention she gives Kitana and all her animals is above and beyond. It would be in anyone’s best interest to have someone like Kelsey take care of their dogs.
