“I am beyond grateful for the exceptional care provided by Lina. They went above and beyond in every aspect, ensuring my dogs were not only well taken care of but also truly happy during my absence. Every day, they sent me pictures, giving me peace of mind and allowing me to see how content and well-cared-for my dogs were. Their dedication was evident in the way they nurtured my dogs, taking the time to clean and groom them regularly. This attention to detail made a huge difference, keeping my dogs healthy and happy. It was clear that they genuinely cared for my pets as if they were their own. The level of communication and care provided was outstanding, making this a worry-free experience for me. I highly recommend them, anyone looking for top-notch pet care. They exceeded my expectations in every way, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service provided. my dogs can’t wait to see them again! --- Feel free to personalize it further with specific names or additional details.”

“Kelly took excellent care of our 1 year old golden doodle pup!! She kept me up to date on how she was doing and sent cute pics which made me feel great knowing she was settled and enjoying herself while I was away. Would highly recommend!!”

“Outstanding care was provided for my Golden retriever. I'm eager to book another reservation because my dog was so happy when she was with this very kind family! She enjoyed meeting their friendly dog, Dell, and she loved playing with Dell in their large backyard. Communication with James and Nicolette was also great and they were very accommodating when I arrived late to pick-up, due to a snowstorm.”

“Rong was fantastic! She communicated regularly and Ralphie came home happy. I can’t ask for much more than that! Her dog, Lucky, is also a sweetheart and made a good companion for my dog.”

“With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!”

“Thank you so much to Jayendri and her family for taking such excellent care of Mona! I feel truly at ease knowing our dog is in the hands of such wonderful people. Thank you!”

“We had a great experience. Varsha was easy to coordinate with, kept us updated with plenty of pictures, and most importantly, our dog was happy and comfortable the entire time. That peace of mind means a lot. Highly recommend!”

“Phil & Amanda took care of Teddy for more than 10 days and we just know that Teddy had a wonderful time in every way! Reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communications! It is very clear how much they love dogs and we never worried while we were away.”

“Sharon was absolutely amazing! I was so worried about leaving my fur baby with someone I didn't know for the first time, but she made me feel so at ease. She sent me constant updates and photos and was so kind and patient with me. I will absolutely be using her again in the future!”

“Piper loves Gracie so much! It’s so nice knowing she is in fantastic hands when I’m out of town! She is so sweet and responsive and piper always comes home. Happy! I will continue to use Gracie!!”

“My pup, a 4 year old poodle mix rescue that is slightly anxious had a great time. She could relax, being the only dog in the house and enjoy walks and cuddles. We will book again!”

“Pam and her daughter were so great with Pancho. They sent me many pictures and updates, it was obvious he was getting lots of love, attention and fun active time. Highly recommend and hopefully Pancho will get to pay another visit to their place!”

“Right from the beginning, Leah was fantastic. She communicated with me very promptly and politely, and she was easy to connect with. She followed the instructions for our dog and took great care of him while we were gone with walks and love. She also sent lots of pictures and videos. When we picked our dog up I told Leah, next time we go out of town, I will definitely be calling her first!”

“Tatyana is such a life saver. My dog is in love with her. She treated my dog like she was family and gave her so much love and attention! She is our new favorite and I would definitely book again. Thanks so much for being so great to my dog LILO appreciate it so much!! 🥰🫶”

“Piero and his family did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs. They were willing to accommodate my dogs’ feeding and potty habits, but I also trusted them to do what would work best and what fit with the household’s vibe while my dogs were their guests. Communication was great, and they sent photos and videos of the dogs’ stay. Would definitely use Piero for boarding or grooming again!”

“Karen is great! She always sent me a bunch of photos daily. She is very flexible to allow me to pick up my dog a bit earlier than scheduled. Her pets are very friendly with my dog. I haven’t fixed my dog yet and she accepted to board my dogs even though she was in the tail-end of my dogs heat (I brought diapers and pads). She is very friendly and I’m glad to find a great animal lover to board my dog.”

Boyds pet parents share their Rover experiences
Rosie was wonderful and helped me out with a very last minute booking. She took amazing care of Chewie! She kept me updated daily with texts about how Chewie was doing as well as pictures. If anyone needs a pup sitter she is the one to go to. Definitely highly recommend! Thank you so much for taking care of my pup!

Shen-Huan was excellent! She gave Squeaky lots of attention, fed him his favorite food, and got him several new toys. He was not lonely during his stay with her! She clearly loves cats and the work she does. I will recommend her to anyone who needs a cat sitter, and will definitely use her again!

Raghavi and her family were AMAZING!!! It was my first time booking a pet sitter, so I didn't really know what to expect, but I got so lucky! Raghavi let me do a little meet-and-greet before I even booked to make sure that Ryder was comfortable with her dog, which put me so at ease, and during the boarding itself, was so accommodating with Ryder's schedule (and went above and beyond by sending me lots of photos while I was away, which was such an unexpected but very nice and much appreciated surprise!) She was so easy to get in touch with, and when I needed an emergency extra couple of days covered, she was so flexible and easygoing about it. Definitely booking again!!! :)

We had a great experience with Lorenzo watching our dog, Pele, for two weeks. He was very communicative throughout the entire stay and regularly sent picture updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Pele was well cared for and happy when we got back. We really appreciated the reliability and attention he gave our dog. Highly recommend!

Can't say enough nice things about Mindy! Really appreciate being willing to take a last minute booking and even more so that she was able and willing to extended it. Will definitely book again. And she was very responsive about pet check ins and even went above and beyond by getting Sadie's favorite food and giving her some grooming. Highly recommend!

Khushboo took wonderful care of Kylo during his week-long stay. She kept me updated daily with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Kylo looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. It’s clear she paid close attention to his needs and made sure he stayed healthy and comfortable. I’d absolutely trust her with him again!

OMG, if Maria could handle my “bipolar” and “not friendly to strangers” French Bulldog “Fito,” this means she is the bestest dog caregiver. She was caring and loving, and when I went to pick Fito up, she asked me when I was going again on vacation. One of her messages said “I just wanted to say thank you again for trusting me with Fito 🐶 I really enjoyed taking care of him.” Trust me, Fito is not easy. He is very lazy and likes to sunbathe and cuddle which makes him a low maintenance dog. But he is epileptic which means he can have a seizure, and he growls at other dogs and is anxious/aggressive (barking) if someone other than my household and my parents tries to pet him. This makes him too a high maintenance dog. I like to say “I am friendly and you can pet me but I can’t say the same about Fito.” Granted, another Rover caregiver who saw Fito gave me the bestest trick. When he saw Fito (during a pre-visit at a park) and Fito was barking at him, he told me “give me his leash.” I was hesitant at first because I didn’t want Fito to bite him but as soon as he took over Fito’s leash, Fito somehow calmed down as if Fito was thinking “hmmm this stranger now is holding my leash, I’d better be nice since I am under his controls.” I was pleasantly surprised. Thank you to this other Rover Caregiver for illuminating my mind. So when it was Maria’s turn to meet Fito (I had set up many meet and greet with a few Rover dog caregivers), I told her about the new found trick and she too was able to handle Fito. Maria, you are the bestest. You took care of Fito like if he was your very own baby and even had to endure watching a couple of seizures, and clean his crate (as he occasionally poops or pees). You r the bestest. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

Iris took care of my dogs over the Christmas holiday. Prior to the stay, she provided me with a detailed form for notes on the care and feeding of each dog. I received pictures & updates during their stay. They were well-taken care of, and I am very happy with the service. Will definitely contact Iris the next time I take a trip.
