Dog Boarding in Merlin

we just completed our first booking through "rover" and are very pleased with the results. our two, 10 month old, maltipoo pups were very well-cared for and loved up by amy for 4 days, 3 nights. we appreciated how amy sent texts and photos to let us know that "our kids" were doing fine and that alone, allowed us to thoroughly enjoy our camping trip! we gladly give amy glowing referrals and look forward to hopefully, leaving the pups with her again, in the not too distant future.

Garrett always replied promptly, and was flexible, and super easy to work with! We knew our dog was in good hands while we were away. Milo was well taken care of, and had the time of his life while he was there! There was much space to run around and play! We received several pictures each day showing us and telling us what our Milo was up to. We had such peace of mind knowing our dog was being loved and cared for as we would. Will definitely reach out to Garrett in the future.

Alicia did a Wonderful job taking care of our Portuguese Water Dog! Wow! We found Alicia to look after our pup while we headed out for a multi day rafting trip. Zady fell in love instantly with Alicia and was relaxed and happy with her as we left her and later when we returned. Alicia took Zady’s health and security professionally; sent pictures of walks they took together.

We couldn’t be happier with our dog boarding experience. It was clear that our dog Otis was well cared for and loved. He got along great with their dog. It gave us peace of mind knowing that he was happy and comfortable. The communication during our trip was great too. We would absolutely use the Runge family again and highly recommend.

Kristina took care of our 5 month old puppy and was wonderful. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter :)

Mochi had an amazing time with Dorothea and Richard! She came home exhausted from all of the hiking and playing that they did. Mochi is an energetic adventure dog, so wearing her out is pretty hard to do. Dorothea sent me regular pictures and videos of Mochi's stay, and they were very easy to communicate with. We will definitely be bringing Mochi to them again!

Brittany took excellent care of our 2 puppies. They played out in the backyard with their puppy and it worked out perfectly! She sent pictures of them playing and after that I never worried about them. Our puppies were safe, happy, and healthy at this beautiful young family’s home ?

Cheryl was such a wonderful, kind and communicative caregiver for our two Goldens! They played and frolicked and had a great time! It gave me so much peace of mind to know my fur babies were in such good hands. She sent great pics and “pupdates”!

Ruth was amazing! Sent lots of pictures and I felt like my cat was taken care of well after. She gave me detailed updates about my cat that I hadn’t even noticed myself.

I cannot say enough good things about April and our experience! She was so sweet, attentive, and genuinely loving with Misa. It is obvious she truly cares about the dogs she watches, and that made such a difference for me as a pet parent. Misa came home happy and relaxed, and I will 100% be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!

Daniela was amazing! Kind, thoughtful to our cat, Tigger who’s 18 years old and needs special food. Daniela was great, making sure he ate his kidney specialty food and felt safe. We plan to call on her services again for our next trip.

Allyse is wonderful. She is communicative, and worked with me to help my anxious pup adjust to her home prior to leaving him with her for boarding. Allyse updated us with pictures, and took great care of him. He was a happy boy when we picked him up. We will definitely book her again!

Gabriella was fantastic from our first contact for me and my 13.5+ yo cat that recently developed hyperthyroidism that requires a he get medication very precisely. Gabriella's communication initiative was especially impressive, as she texted me right after each of Smokey's dosings and sent pictures of his adventures at Gabriella and Gabriel's comfortable home. Gabriella prepared a special space for Smokey and provided me updates of his comfort level and how he was doing. I never doubted for an instant that I had made the right choice for my best buddy and will definitely be using Gabriella again and am glad to have been able to provide a review. Gabriella is extremely sweet, thoughtful, and caring, and that came through as extremely genuine. I definitely plan to book with Gabriella whenever I need to be out of town!

Julianne and Ragen were great! They have an obvious passion for taking care of dogs 🩷 I got updates all weekend and Ranger got plenty of love and walks.

Lexi stayed at Raven's house for 5 days/nights. Raven kept me updated with messages and photos, which was very appreciated. Lexi got plenty of attention and cuddles at Raven's house. Though Lexi is accustomed to being alone at our house during the day, it was a plus that Lexi always had company at Raven's place. I'm unaware of any issues with Lexi while she was at Raven's, and it seems she even "made friends" with Raven's large dog. Lexi was in good spirits when we picked her up, and I'm glad to have found a dog sitter who gave her good care!

Desi provided excellent service for us, watching our pup for a week while out of town. We received daily photos or videos updates of him playing with other dogs and taking walks. We unexpectedly needed to extend his stay another half day and she happily accommodated. I would highly recommend Desi for daycare days or extended stays, and we will be making future appointments.
