“Matt was able to watch my mini Aussie Holly last minute on the day of. He took her on a walk, sent pictures of her during her stay, and was quick to respond to any text messages. Holly was in great spirits the next day when I went to pick her up. Overall good experience, would recommend, and would use again in the future. Thanks Matt!”
“Melissa was the perfect person to take care of our Sara. She had a great time with Melissa’s pups and family. She kept us informed on how Sara was doing each day. This was great for us as it was Sara’s first boarding experience. We know Sara had a blast!! Melissa thank you for welcoming Sara, Rich and I. We enjoyed you and meeting your family!! Hugs 🤗. Thank you.”
“Alexa bonded instantly with our pup and was committed to providing him with the best home away from home possible! She sent loads of pictures and checked in regularly, and it was clear from the photos that he could not have been happier! Thankful to have found such a happy place for Brady to land - he is looking forward to future stays with Alexa!”
“Milagros was wonderful. She kept me updated about Francesco's whereabouts and how he was doing. She sent pictures several times a day. She was easy to talk to and a really wonderful person. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Sharon and Albert were fantastic hosts for Mushu. They sent frequent pictures and provided daily updates. Our pug went for a nice walk daily with them. Mushu was in good hands and had lots of fun staying with Sharon and Albert. They have a good front/backyard for the dogs to play in. They do take up to 4 doggies so it may get crowded. I recommend Sharon and Albert, and trust them to watch my PUG. There costs are higher than some others, but they do provide good service. Late pickups will require an extra night's stay.”
“I am so thankful for Michelle! Michelle genuinely loves my dogs and provides them with a home away from home. My pups are always happy to go over for their "mini holiday" - they are so happy and well cared for that I am completely worry free. Thank you Michelle! You are a life saver!”
“Shelly is amazing! She has room for the dogs to roam and be dogs that is fenced and safe. She sent pictures. And I felt so comfortable knowing Luna is being loved on the whole time. I’d recommend her every time. And will definitely use her again in the future!”
“We are beyond happy to have found Blair (Robert). He is the best in loving doggos and taking care of them. Our Rocky had the best of time with him and we are 100% going to book again with him. Thank you, Blair!”
“Elisabeth was fantastic with our fur babies. She loved them as if they were her own and kept us in the loop with pictures on FB and the occasional text with special updates. We would definitely recommend leaving your fur baby in her care and we will definitely be using her services again.”
“Colleen and her husband are lovely people and treated our Maltipoo like he was their own. She is very knowledgeable and intuitive and a real dog lover. My little dog even looked back at her when we got into the car! What a lucky find 🐶”
“The best review is the way my little guy went running to Michelle with his tail wagging when I dropped him off. He obviously enjoyed his stay with his doggie friends everything to explore in the big back yard.”
About: We've had Golden Retrievers since 2005 and LOVE Goldens. We currently have three Goldens - Red (age 6), Max (age 5), and Riley (age 3). We often dog sit for our family and friends that have Goldens and I love it so much, I decided to start a Rover account to do it for others that have Golden family members and need a fun, reliable place for them to go when they travel or need boarding. I'm a self-employed educational psychologist with a flexible schedule. I often work from home and am off over the summer and during school holiday breaks. We have three Golden Retrievers (ages 3, 5,and 6) who get a lot of activity. We have a huge fenced back yard, and a fenced front yard, and play fetch every day out back with the ball thrower. We also go on walks around the neighborhood. We have a doggy door, and the dogs go in and out at their leisure. Our dogs are a major part of our family. They're always with us. They sleep in my bed. Your golden(s) can sleep in my bed or room, too, or in a crate if that's what they're used to. We also have two kids (age 11 and 8), so your dog must be good with kids, as well as with other dogs.
“Jenn watch my GSP Scout while I was on vacation. Jenn was very accomodating for drop off and pickup times. She send txts of how Scout was doing during her stay. I will be using Jenn again to watch Scout the next time I go on vacation! Thank you Jenn for watching my girl!”
“Alicia was great, she kept us up to date the whole time. Maxine seem to do very well there. Hopefully Maxine will have the pleasure of staying again in the future. Thanks!!”
“Noah was great! Both my hyperactive puppy and more staid golden retriever appeared happy in the many photos he sent, and when I picked them up. They seemed to get a lot of attention, and Noah seems nice, caring and unflappable.”
“Sara and her husband were awesome, they took care of my 2 husky’s. They came home very happy, thank you it made my trip easier to know my dogs were happy. I didn’t think I needed updates but they sent me updates and it made all the difference. Linda”
About: I have cared for dogs my whole life. This includes special needs dogs. My dogs are a big part of my life. They are very healthy. I am currently a semi retired, very healthy senior with lots of time to spend quality time with animals when I am not riding my horse. I live in a gated community and have a fenced yard. I have two little Chihuahuas in my home. They are very friendly and get along with other dogs.

Apex dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sara's is the perfect place for our dog, Maggie. There's lots of open space and fresh air, a lovely pond and a great covered patio where she can be outdoors and supervised. We previously had experience with a dog sitter who took in a large number of dogs at the same time as Maggie, and Maggie reacted negatively to that situation. We sincerely appreciate the fact that Sara is willing to limit Maggie's visit to just Maggie and Sara's own sweet dog. Maggie gets lots of walks, lots of love and attention, and comes home happy. We will continue to use Sara as our go-to, favorite dog sitter!
