Kerry is absolutely amazing. My pup loved spending time with her - either cuddling on the couch or lounging in the back porch with her. We greatly appreciated her constant communication and the care taken while our pup was in her care.

Our pup had an amazing time at Lauren’s! Lauren kept our active 1 year old dog plenty busy with walks, trips to the dog park and play with her own sweet doggy. She kept us updated w messages, videos and pictures throughout his stay.

Sue & Thomas did an EXCELLENT job taking care of my dog Finley. He had a great time hiking and watching sports with them! They also graciously accomodation a last minute need to administer medication for a rash that appeared a few days before my trip. I'll definitely be entrusting Finley to them next time I need to leave town.

Kang loves to stay with Geoffrey and Lizzy. It was the second time that Kang stayed with them. Geoffrey is a great sitter. We got updates every day and cute pictures. It made our vacation so much easier because we knew Kang is in great hands. I highly recommend him.

Jennifer looked over my super energetic puppy and did an outstanding job. It’s very clear that she likes dogs and tries to make them happy. She sends photos and texts without asking and keeps you updated. You can definitely trust her with your fur baby!

Christine was very kind and Jolene seemed happy to be there! Her kids are very kind and clearly know how to interact with dogs, even more anxious ones. I would definitely board Jolene with Christine again in the future.

Lilo’s stay with Julie was great. She was very responsive to messages and sent lots of pictures. The meet and greet at her house was also good. She has her own 2 dogs and cats that Lilo was fine with. Julie also knows how to handle the dogs if they get into something with each other which is good. Of note, she does sit other dogs at the same time so it is something to be aware of but I felt very good leaving Lilo with Julie and her family. I would definitely use her again.

Eduardo and Sue did a wonderful job caring for our two corgis, including one rambunctious 8 month old and the other who is still recovering from surgery. We gave them a fairly long list of instructions and they were very kind and attentive to both boys' needs. We received regular updates and it was clear the boys were happy and having a great time. During pickup, Eduardo and Sue said they would love to watch them again some time, which I think makes clear how much they care for their Rover guests. Highly recommend!

We knew ahead of our booking when we first spoke with Angelito that Bear was going to be in good hands…and as the weekend progressed, he not only reaffirmed our thoughts, but exceeded them. Through his consistent messages, photo, and video updates we could see that Bear was having so much fun being in Angelito’s household and playing with the other pup there. Angelito was so accommodating, thoughtful, and caring while taking care of our Bear and we couldn’t be more grateful for him. Thank you again!!

Yue and her husband took great care of Taro. They were very easy to communicate and flexible with pick-up when my flight was delayed. Will for sure come back the next time I'm out of town.
