“Ellen & John have continued to provide amazing care and company for my puppy. I travel frequently and every time I have needed to board her, they have been available even on short notice! The communication and flexibility has been a godsend. Ellen & John will always be my first go-to!”



“Alara is a sweetheart! Our Daisy is very docile and Alara's gentle nature was exactly what Daisy needed. Alara was great about sending us updates as well As a couple of photos. This allowed for us to feel good about leaving our girl with Alara. We were able to enjoy our time away without having to worry about Daisy having great care while we were away. We will definitely be repeat customers with Alara.”


“Pamela, was absolutely amazing with bear. She was great with communicating and kept me updated on how he was doing throughout the day with pictures, texts, and videos. He was very comfortable with her and her husband. They spoiled him and showered him with a lot of love and one on one attention. He was such a happy boy when leaving as well. He seemed to have such a good time and will definitely be going back to visit again! Thank you very much Pamela! I highly recommend her to care for your fur baby.”


“Hanna took wonderful care of Bodhi! I appreciated her sensitivity and kindness with my older dog. I would definitely have Bodhi stay with her again.”


“They did a great job taking care of my pup! He normally takes a while to warm up to strangers and gets stressed easily, but I could tell they made him very comfortable and he had lots of fun during his stay. He’s not the easiest dog to sit since he has medications and has certain behaviors in new environments, but they handled everything like pros and I got lots of updates throughout the day. They truly care about your pup and I could not have asked for better people to trust my dog with!”


“My Bella and I absolutely love Kimberly. It is so comforting that when we get to Kimberly's, Bella runs over and goes right into her home. Kimberly sends me pictures and compliments about my Bella....it makes my heart smile. THANK YOU to Kimberly for making me feel like my Bella's at her home away from home.”


“It's hard to put into words how amazing Kathy and Tim are. I think my wife said it best when she said they weren't watching our dog. They were CARING for our dog. Please do yourself a favor and stop scrolling now and book a reservation with this amazing couple. I really do believe this was the whole reason why Rover was created. To be able to leave your loved one in the care of someone who will love them just as much. We were able to enjoy our time away and receive continuous communication about our dogs stay with Kathy and Tim.”


“Our bulldog Leia had an amazing time! She played a ton in the huge, fenced-in yard and seemed to be very well cared for and received a lot of personal attention. We received a lot of nice updates with photos and videos. She was very tired when she got home which is great! We hope to have Leia stay with Robert and Eileen again when we travel in the future.”


“We love Dixie and she lives dogs. We were fortunate to find her and have used her twice now for several days of overnight stays. Her house and property are perfect for any dog as there's plenty of space to run and Lounge out. But the great thing that really made me feel super comfortable was her love for animals and her attention to detail regarding feeding and sleeping arrangements. I have several more business trips coming up this year and Have No Reservations on using Dixie”


“I appreciated Ashley’s gracious flexibility as I had to change my travel plans several times due to unforeseen circumstances. My dog ZuZu seemed to get a good vibe from Ashley’ home right off the bat and just walked up to the door on her own. Lots of nice outdoor space for play and lounging on the lawn. ZuZu is usually a pretty anxious traveler so I was relieved that staying at a new house for a minute didn’t add to her stress. Ashley and her family will be an easy first choice when we travel againvyy to o the Ithaca area, which my family and I plan to do next year for the 2023 Finger Lakes GrassRoots Festival of Music and Dance. Thanks again, Ashley!”


“Darlene and her husband provide a safe and caring environment. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our fur baby was in good hands. Darlene is wonderful about maintaining communication and occasionally just sending a photo so you know everything is OK. Our little guy is a handful and it appears that she was able to handle his quirks with ease. I would recommend Darlene without hesitation.”


“Overall things went well! Laura sent pictures of our dog every day! Our dog had a bit of anxiety but she seemed to adjust well after the first day!”


“Steven took amazing care of our little Rudy! He was very communicative and sent lots of pictures throughout the week-long stay. Rudy looked so happy and comfortable in every photo. Steven was really wonderful to work with. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with a new caregiver. I look forward to having Steven care for Rudy again, and feel so relieved to have a trusted person in the area.”


“Laurie is like the dog whisperer... she will live your pooch! She even let Ella sleep on her bed! Ella also has fun with Laurie’s dogs!”


“Susan took great care of our little dog! She was very loving and sent pictures regularly. She is also very responsive to texts and calls. I would definitely book her services again.”


“First time boarding our 6 1/2 year old cavalier. Destiny was very professional and knowledgeable. Ruby immediately remembered her from the meet and greet and looked very comfy with Destiny. Will be boarding Ruby again with her when the need arises. Highly recommend!”

“Andrea took great care of Izzi! She was communicative and clearly has a lot of experience with dogs. She was also very accommodating of my changing schedule.”


“They took great care of Teddy, I dare say even better than how we treated him at home. So many walks and play time a day. They really love Teddy and put my mind at ease as I am away. Will definitely be sending Teddy back to them”


“Candyse and her family took great care of our little dog and cat for a week. She was very responsive, shared pictures occasionally and provided meaningful updates. Her home was comfortable and both animals came home happy and healthy. We will certainly book again when we get the chance.”


“Claudia is the best! I had a last minute trip come up and Claudia was super accommodating. I appreciated all the updates and pictures. I know Leia (my dog) had a great time. Thank you!”
