“I went out of town for a few days and left my dog Spark with Timothy. 10/10, I received pictures everyday and updates! Clean environment very professional and patient!! Spark definitely had a good time!!”


“Hachi was super excited to be back again! He’s already comfortable and being happily greeted by Lexi was wonderful. Pamela will love and care for your Fur baby. Hachi was happy to be back because he has so much fun there. Pamela captures your fur baby’s fun time and share those cute pictures with you. We will be back all the time now, since we found such a happy and loving place to board him when needed. Thank you Pamela!”


“We are so appreciative of Ruth and she did a wonderful job caring for our 12 week old Aussie puppy! She is conscientious and caring and did a fabulous job of keeping us updated and sending photos of our Sonny! We were so happy knowing Ruth was with our puppy when we needed to be out of town. We highly recommend booking with Ruth for your Rover needs!”


“We left our dog with Linda for 3 days. Her dogs were very friendly and they got along well. He loved being able to run around the fenced yard. He seemed so happy and free. He is usually very anxious but he didn't have any issues while staying with Linda. He did really well with Linda. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”


“Jenny was wonderful with our 14 yr old dachshund, Charlie. She sent pics and updates every day, and it was evident our little guy was well taken care of and content in her home. I would definitely rebook with her again in the future!”


“Katherine was great with our pup Sunny. She came home tired and worn out. I got pictures and updates regularly and she was quick to respond. Easy to communicate with about drop off and pick up! Would recommend!”


“Anna is our go to for our dog! She sends detailed updates every day including information on some training she did as well as a paragraph recapping the day, not to mention TONS of videos of the dogs. We will continue to keep using her services.”


“Jayme took exceptional care of my senior dog while we were gone for almost 2 weeks. She was easy to communicate with and we arranged a meet & greet after I initially booked, which went well. Her home and yard were perfect for my dog and she answered any questions I had. My dog has a few medications she had to take and this was not an issue at all. She and her family were so welcoming and loving to my dog, who has mobility issues and separation anxiety. She also sent me photos and updates throughout the time she was watching my dog, which was so welcomed. I never once felt like I was concerned or worried about how things were going while in her care. When I picked up my dog, she was very obviously comfortable in her home! She and her family were a true blessing to us in our time of need for a pet sitter and we’d love to have her help again in the future. Thank you!”


“Kina watched our 2 corgis, Zelos and Fae while we had a weekend away. She had awesome communication with daily check ins and pictures so we could see how our furkids were doing. Every picture showed 2 very happy and relaxed pups, which made us feel so much better. When I went to pick them up they seemed so content and comfortable, which is a surprise as Zelos has separation anxiety in his senior years. It also helped that Kina has owned corgis in the past so she understood their little quirks. We will absolutely use her again! Zelos and Fae give 2 paws up as well and can't wait to visit again!”


“SO so grateful to have found both Jacob and his wife through Rover - I think I suffer from far worse separation anxiety being away from my dog than she does being away from me (?) however, after meeting these two and their own four rescue dogs during a pre-boarding meet and greet, I had absolutely no worries that she would be in great hands. They were both SO kind, communicative, and welcoming. Their genuine compassion and love for dogs was immediately obvious, as was the fact that they both possess thorough knowledge of canine care and behavior. Wrigley even immediately recognized the house when I dropped her off and was so excited for her stay - that and the consistent updates/photos/communication gave me SUCH peace of mind and I will absolutely be reaching out for any future dog sitting needs. Thank you both SO much!!”


“Jillian and her family were super sweet and very accommodating while taking care of Layla! Layla has her own set of quirks/challenges which they were great at handling and understanding.”


“Sylvia was very pleasant and accommodating. She sent lots of pictures and video snippets of our dog to let us know that he was doing well. Her home is very tidy and clean and are pop seemed happy with her.”


“Sam was great! Sam was quick in responding to my messages, during both the booking process and during my dog’s stay. She provided lots of updates, and it was clear from her photos & messages that my sweet Omelette LOVED her stay, and that she was loved in return by Sam & her family. Thank you, Sam!”


“Niki and her family took great care of Gracie! She was very easy to communicate with, coordinate pick up and drop off times, and sent cute updates each day. I would love to have Niki watch her again, she was great!”
