“Sandra was very accommodating and welcoming. This was our first experience with having someone other than family care for Chase. He seemed at ease and well cared for. We will definitely rebook with Sandra and cannot thank her enough for making this process easy.”


“First time using Rover and had a great experience with Keith & Ashley. Had last minute travel plans come up and they were very accommodating and kept me updated and in the loop all weekend. My dog is anxious and has some separation anxiety and they made him feel right at home.”


“Aishea was nice and welcoming to Charlie. He felt comfortable immediately with her. Charlie was very well taken care of. Kept me updated of how he was and sent picture and videos. Will definitely recommend. Thank you Aishea!”

“Amanda and her family took care of Butters very well. the family is welcoming and caring. Butters had a wonderful time. definitely recommend. Thank you so much for taking care of Butters.”


“Mary, along with her husband, took great care of our two dogs over Memorial Day Weekend. She not only provided the care and boarding as requested, but she went above and beyond from what we asked. On my drive home I realized I had forgotten their food and water bowls. Not a problem, Mary informed me she had extra and that I didn’t need to worry or come back with them. I had informed Mary that walks weren’t needed as I have one dog who doesn’t like other dogs and another dog who is leash reactive out of excitement when he sees other dogs. To avoid stress, I usually let sitters know that walks aren’t necessary during their stay. Mary was able to take our dogs for walks without issue! She didn’t hesitate to do so, even if they could be a little challenging. Mary made sure they took their different medications with their food. She also provided nightly updates along with a few pictures. Lastly, during their stay, one of our dogs had stomach issues, most likely due to a new medicine from the vet. Mary was on top of things with communication and recommendations of action. She was very informative and detailed about it. She even offered to possibly take our dog to vet services if needed. Our dog has a sensitive stomach and we didn’t realize the medication could be an issue for her (when we dropped her off, she had only been taking it for a couple days). We really appreciated her being forward with what was happening and being very patient and kind with us because we felt so bad that happened during our dog’s stay.”


“When we dropped her off for this stay, Mabel ran right into the house when we arrived and didn't even look back. She was so excited to see her friends. That a pretty great review 😊”


“Taylor was absolutely amazing!!! From wanting to meet up before my boarding booking to make sure our dogs got along (they did :) ) to sending pictures and checking in while I was away - he is a great sitter and boarding option! He was also really accommodating when my plans changed literally last minute and even updated the booking to save the extra day charge, which he certainly didn't have to do since the change was on my side. I could just tell he was a pet person, and my dogs came home very happy and loved while I was away. Thank you Taylor - and for anyone else, he is VERY highly recommended :)”


“Megan regularly fosters kittens from Dakin so I felt very comfortable leaving our two cats in her care, especially since our one cat requires a special diet and pill administration. Really appreciated the super quick communication !”


“This is the first dog I’ve ever owned and I was very nervous giving her to anyone to watch. Angie is the best. She made me feel at ease through the process and gave my dog Ripley a great week away. She sent me lots of pictures and was quick in her responses giving me updates on how Ripley was doing. I will definitely use Angie again.”


“Jannylza was absolutely perfect! Took such good care of my dog and followed all instructions exactly. My pup was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while I was away. Communication was great too, I got plenty of updates and photos which made me feel so at ease. Would definitely book again!”


“Cannot thank them enough. It was my first time using Rover and on a short notice request- no problem. I got pictures of Alfie playing and cuddling throughout his stay which set me at ease. He also came back smelling nicer and was freshly brushed, he was so happy! I 100% recommend Heather and Norman”


“10 out of 10 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ‼️‼️‼️‼️ Use Allison to watch your fur babies! You will not regret it. I had an unfortunate situation and she came through and my dog-ter had a great time. It brings a different type of peace to an individual when you know your fur animal is loved and well taken care of. We will see you in the near future 🤎”


“Lindsey was so patient with Josie! Josie was a little nervous her 1st time and Lindsey did everything possible to make her comfortable. Communication was easy and she was very flexible! Thanks Lindsey!”


“My dog had a great time with Jessiana. You can tell how much dedication and care she provided him. She is very responsive and accommodating. 100% recommended.”



“Karen was great! She sent a lot of pictures where you could see Teddy was having a good time playing with other little dogs and napping on sofas. Given how cold it gets in the winter, it was also great that he could use the fenced yard area right outside the door to quickly do his business. Very convenient. All in all great experience for Teddy and piece of mind for me!”


“Hannah was great! Walter had the best time playing with Wolf and even got to go on a trip to play with other dogs! The big fences in back yard was amazing and I loved getting pics of him throughout.”


“We had the pleasure of having Kristin watch our two dogs for the first time, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience!! We were a bit nervous leaving them for the first time, but she made it so easy and reassuring. From the thoughtful updates and pictures, to the way she made our dogs feel comfortable and cared for, we could tell she genuinely loves animals. It was such a relief to know they were in good hands! We came back to happy pups! We’ll definitely be booking again in the future. We highly recommend!!”
