“Receiving daily updates and photos made me feel so at ease and truly showed how well my sweet boy was being cared for. It meant so much to see him happy and comfortable. So grateful for the love and attention he received and would absolutely trust them again!”
“Christian was excellent. This was our first time leaving our boxer with a stranger and I couldn't have asked for more. She was reassuring and very knowledgeable. I trust that our boxer was well taken care of and loved. She sent lots of pictures daily and gave me updates. I Will definitely be an ongoing client for Christian.”
“Charlayda was absolutely wonderful with our big puppy! She was extremely professional and communicative. We were showered with pictures and videos during Leo's stay, and were grateful for the updates. Not only was he well cared for, judging from the happy pics/videos, he was on vacation!! He seemed to have picked up some GOOD habits while he was in her care too. I recommend Charlayda 100%”
“Cinder was absolutely amazing with our fur baby. I am always hesitant to leave my baby girl with anyone but Cindee gave me the warm and fuzzy. She made sure to arrange a meet and greet before hand showed me where my little fur baby would be. I could tell she was experienced just from our conversation. She made it easy on me. She messaged me with pictures and updates to ease my heart and was very understanding of our situation with our newborn. 20/10 RECOMMEND!”
“Lindsey & Jose were great! They provided updates so I felt at ease. Their kiddos were amazing with my pooch as well. 5 stars for them too! Definitely will keep this family on the list for boarding again.”
“I usually go with a pet boarding facility but wanted to try something different. Meaghan was very responsive and flexible with my schedule. She welcomed my 2 frenchies with open arms no hesitation. She made me feel more comfortable with her than taking them to a pet paradise.”
“Our first Rover experience could not have gone any better! Em was absolutely amazing and our dog Wally had the best time! Every picture we got you could see how much fun Wally was having. It made traveling so much easier knowing our little guy was in such great hands. Will definitely be using Em again!”
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!! Chris and Tannia are the nicest people you’d want to meet! Their condo is very clean and safe as well. They kept me updated, send me lots of photos and always responded quickly. I could tell Stella was also happy through the photos!”
“Katya did a great job taking care of Reggie when I went out of town! Communication was excellent and she provided periodic updates and photos showing how much fun he was having! It’s so nice to be able to leave my boy with someone knowing he is so well taken care of!”
“Wonderful experience! I think Little Bit is a little sad ! He was able to play with alot of other dogs his size. Pattie was Wonderful, took pictures kept me updates on the play times. Definitely recommend her for 1st time Rover users.”
“Kendra was amazing and I had great peace of mind knowing my dog was in wonderful hands. Communication was stellar: I got updates and multiple photos every day, and it was awesome to hear of his adventures while I was out of town. I recommend Kendra to anyone looking for a thoughtful, caring pet sitter and I for sure be back as a returning client.”
“Rachel was awesome! Freyja had room to run and friends to run with, and I received photos updating me throughout her stay. She's my first choice when I have to go out of town for work.”
“Another great stay with Auntie Sherri! Oliver runs inside and makes himself at home with Ralphie and Harvey. When it’s pickup time he’s sad to leave. As always Sherrie sends many pictures and updates to us. Very flexible and accommodating to drop off and pick up which is greatly appreciated. Thank you Sherrie!!”
“Randy and his wife were amazing and consistent with the photos. They gave my pup is eye meds and even send videos while doing it. I highly recommend them.”
“Repeat customer of Emma’s always flexible and communicative. Always send great pictures of our boy and is always a pleasure to work with. Cooper loves being over there, could not speak more highly of a boarder. Emma makes the process so seamless and makes me feel as though I don’t need to worry when I go out of town. 10/10 recommend.”
“Our 2 adult pups were well cared for by Adriana while we were away. She kept us updated to their daily activities with both photos and videos. Our lab mix really enjoyed escaping the July heat with dips in the pool. We would definitely consider booking with Adriana again in the future!”
“My chihuahua and I haven't been a part in forever. When my family and I went on a one week trip, I knew I had to find the perfect dog sitter. My dog is picky and I was worried, but she was immediately comfortable at crystals house. She is so kind and attentive, and became best friends with my chihuahua. She was comfortable around everyone in the household and very well taken care of. Will certainly be using her services in the future and am beyond thankful for her and her family. Thank you SO much”
“Tyler you are the best. Thank you for take care for this nine days of our Luna, for supplying all your medications and give to her all your love specially your kids, for the photos and updates everyday. Again, you are the best❤️❤️”
“Christopher was very easy to communicate with and sent photos of my dogs throughout the week. He let me know when one of them didn’t seem to be eating normally and he was confident in handling it. My dogs came back happy and without issues.”
“Bingo had a great time with Rochelle. I was worried about leaving him with someone he didn't know but she was great with him and he adjusted quickly and seemed happy and content. She sent daily pictures and videos!”

Rachelle is awesome. She sent us pictures and my dogs looked comfortable staying with her. When we picked them up, they both looked happy and looked familiar with Rachelle so I think they were comfortable staying with her and liked her. They didn't forget letting Rachelle know they appreciated her by going back to her and let her pet them one more time before we left.
Hannah was absolutely incredible caring for our dog, Rogan, for nearly four weeks. Rogan was treated like part of the family, and it was clear he felt right at home. She sent multiple pictures almost every day. What really stood out was how thoughtful and caring Hannah is—when it was raining and outdoor play was limited, she even went out and bought Rogan a toy to keep him entertained. That is above and beyond! We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we’re so grateful. We would trust her again without hesitation and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet.
Another amazing stay with Sherrie and her family :) my baby loves staying with her and I love that I don’t have to worry about him! You can truly tell she loves animals and treats her guests like they are her own! 🥰🩷 if you are looking for the right sitter, book here!!!!
We can't say enough good things about Brent and David. This was the first time our two, 8 1/2 year old Boxers have been away from us for 8 days. We had left them a day or two with our daughter in the past and through that experience, we discovered they don't eat for a day or two over separation anxiety and basically mope. Not the case here! These pups didn't miss a beat! Healthy appetite every day, plenty of exercise with walks and outdoor playtime, sofa lounging, treats, love, pets, full - hands-on attention and just happy. Our guilt and worry disappeared pretty rapidly after seeing the daily photos and video we received. We could not have dreamed or asked for better care of our fur babies. We can now take trips without concern and will always use Brent and David! Our dogs were loved. Highly recommend, A+, Five Star #happyfurbabies #BrentandDavid #Rover
Michael did an amazing job boarding my dog for the week. He kept me updated, made sure my dog was well cared for, and treated her like family. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend Michael to anyone needing reliable and caring pet boarding!
Sweet Ashley and her husband took great care of my 5 yr old Rat Terrier, Petey! They have a lovely home with a big grassy back yard not too far from us. And they have an 8 yo Daschund named Tank, who is very loveable and makes friends easily. They went on walks, played fetch, and he even slept in their bed! I don’t think Petey missed us one bit. He’s going back there next time we go out of town!
