“We have been using Jo'ell's Rover service for Sparky for more than a year and we absolutely love the care she takes for him. Sparky is always very eager to meet her as we approach her house. She has a nice and big backyard that is very well secured (extra piece of mind). We always received Sparky's photos everyday. Thanks you Jo'ell and family for taking care of Sparky !!”


“Sarah was great. She took very good care of my dog and cat and kept me updated with photos and recaps of their activities. She obviously loves animals and I felt my boys were very safe in her care--I recommend her highly.”


“Shirley is fantastic with both our dog (medium size hound mix) and cat. Our dog gets so excited when she realizes she is going to stay with Shirley. Very responsive and responsible and communicates well with pics every day. We never worry about their wellbeing while in Shirley’s care.”


“First timer to book through Rover and it was a smashing success! Juliet seemed well cared for and entertained while her family left her for a long weekend. I would definitely book with John again. I think that Juliet got to hang with another dog put her at ease in a new home. And loved that we received periodic photos of her enjoying her vacation. Thank you!”

I was extremely pleased with their service & will definitely use again & again!”

“Connie was very responsive to all of our questions before and during the time she was watching Belle. She sent us photos and we could tell that Belle was very relaxed and at home right off the bat. We ended up missing our flight back home and she was able to accommodate us and our needs. Highly recommend!”
