1. Sophie H.

“Sophie, Andrew & Banjo were amazing! This was my very first experience with Rover and they were all excellent in easing my nerves and assured me throughout the entire weekend. Tate was one happy puppy and misses them already. They provided plenty of fun, snuggles and flexibility during his time with them. Tate cannot wait to stay again with Miss Sophie!”


2. Amanda W.

“Amanda was amazing, kept me posted all the time about Loki and send me pictures of him so I could see how he was doing. He was definitely being loved amd spoiled like if he was home with me. Very glad I found her for Loki's care while I was away.”




3. Derek B.

“Derek is always our first choice for Ellie. He has great communication and spends so much time outside playing with pups and then treating them to homemade dinners. Couldn’t ask for a better more reliable person for your pets!”


4. Megan M.

“Megan and her family took care of Uno for 2 weeks during an international trip. I was nervous to leave him for such a long time, but the communication and care were top notch. Megan sent pictures and messages every day with updates on how he was doing and their fun activities. Uno has a lot of energy and they were super active with him which I so appreciated! Traveling and being away from him was much easier knowing that he was safe and happy. Will definitely book with Megan again!”


5. Margaret V.

“We can't say enough about Margaret and the care she took of our beloved dog, Maisy. She sent many updates wih great pictures and we felt so comfortable that we had left our dog , for only the second time, in he care. Her dog and cat were also so welcoming to our dog which made her first experience with other pets a great one. We highly recommend Margaret to take wonderful care of your dog too.”

“Michelle was a fantastic host for our dog. Our pup is an 80lb, 1.5yr old lab, with tons of energy, and Michelle handled her so well. Our dog had such a great time, got to play with other dogs, and got so much attention during her 10 day stay. Michelle also sent daily updates with photos and videos of our pup. We could not be any more pleased with Michelle’s services. She also offers day care services which we used prior to our stay to see if our dog was a good fit, and she was! Will DEFINITELY use her again!”

She has always had dogs, and they have always received the best vet care and a tremendous amount of attention and love. She has a fenced in yard that has plenty of running room and shade when needed. Kristine has worked many years dealing with the public on the phone and in person. I have been honored to have called her my friend for over 30 years. I only have 2 cats, but when I had my dog, I would have been relieved to know that he was in great hands while I was away.”
