“Ana was amazing with our dog. She had great communication and sent us pics of our big baby while we were away. He was well taken care of and it was our first experience with rover! Definitely will use Ana again!”


2. Lisa F.

“Lisa was amazing!! This was Jurnee’s first time in a rover overnight and she communicated everyday and provided so many pictures. She met the needs of my dog from the first night and her being anxious, but the next two nights we talked and she made sure Jurnee was much more comfortable. I will most definitely use her again!!”

14. Trish A.

“We’re in the process of moving and Trish was so gracious about being flexible for our chaotic schedule. Sam clearly had a great time and was fully exhausted when we brought him home, I’m not sure he wanted to leave! 😅 He was able to get his nanny dog on, and play hard with Zeus, so we'll definitely be booking with Trish any time we need an overnight or even a good play date for our pup.”

“Heather, you and Brand were so wonderful to Kira. Thank you so much for taking care of her this weekend. I had zero concerns for her. You two definitely have a heart for animals. Kira seems so happy there.”




16. Cynthia A.


“Cynthia was great with my boy Copper! I was overseas and a last minute change happened and I needed someone to watch Copper for a month. She jumped at the opportunity and was a total lifesaver. She constantly kept me updated and sent pictures to let me know he was doing fine. Pickup was a breeze and Copper obviously had a great time! I would suggest Cynthia to anyone who wants their pup to be taken care of! We will be booking again with Cynthia!”

“Sierra went above and beyond when watching our 6 month old pup. It was my first time leaving him to be watched by someone else and I could not have asked for a better experience for Doug. She sent pictures daily and gave constant updates so I could rest assured he was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
