“My two cavapoos had the best time and Samantha was very responsive with updates to ease my anxiety about leaving them for so long! I would highly recommended trusting her with your fur babies!”
“Victoria is absolutely awesome! She suggested a meet and greet before our stay given my dog hasn’t met cats before. She was so clearly knowledgeable from the start; meeting us outside with one of her dogs and gradually introducing our dog to her pets. Our pup can play rough and be a bit wild since he’s only a year old but she seemed totally confident in managing all the dogs’ behavior. Her home is super pet friendly (pets allowed on furniture, fenced yard) and she knows a ton about watching dogs. She noted she would feed dogs separately to limit resource guarding and had a brilliant method of having me leave while my dog was outside when I dropped him off to reduce separation anxiety. My dog had an amazing time with Victoria! She sent regular text, photo, and video updates which we so appreciated. She allowed him to sleep in her bed with her and clearly spoiled him like one of her own. He was getting over a mild ear infection and she even gave him his last few doses of medication! We had a great experience with Victoria and will definitely use her in the future!”
“Nelia and Brett were wonderful. They cared for Bronson as if he were a part of their household and were very communicative and accommodating. I highly recommend their service.”
“Richard was amazing with our dog! He kept us updated with pictures. We had a great peace of mind knowing Winnie was in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Richard!”
“Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.”
“Tia loved my Dash like he was her own. Dash was very well taken care of and loved. I received daily updates with pictures and videos. Tia is also very accommodating. Would highly reccomend to everyone!”
“Raeann is truly the best. She cares for Bronn as if he were her own. She always sends lots of updates and pictures (which as anxious dog mom I appreciate immensely). I could not recommend her enough and Bronn is looking forward his next visit!”
“Elizabeth was a great choice to care for my dog Dunkin! She let him make himself right at home in her space and sent consistent pictures and updates allowing me to have great peace of mind while away. Would recommend!”
About: Hi, I'm Angela! I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by dogs, and I truly believe a home isn’t complete without the sound of four paws on the floor. I recently said goodbye to my beloved Pit Bull, Bia. She was my world, and I want to treat your pup with the same devotion, patience, and affection that I gave to her. My fiancée, Lauren, and I have her two dogs 2 weeks out of the month and they are great with other dogs and love to make friends! I work from home during the day and am a dance teacher in the evening. Between the two of us we have flexibility most of the day for house visits, walks, boarding, and daycare! I work from home during the day and my fiancée is home in the evening so we have a flexible schedule to give your furkid lots of love and attention! I have a large backyard on a quiet residential street and 2 sweet dogs part time who love to make friends! I have the ability to crate dogs of all size in my home and will not accept dogs from multiple families at one time so your baby will be spoiled!
“Very pleased with our experience with Mike and his daughter. They loved our dog like their own. Kept him active and well cared for. Mike was very accommodating and easy to work with as well. 100% reccomend and will be rebooking.”
“Bruce had a great time with Gemma and Gizmo! We received regular updates and adorable photos. He loved playing with all the toys and of course snuggling! We will definitely be back - thanks Gemma!”
“Kassandra did an excellent job watching my very quirky and energetic corgi. She sent detailed, daily updates, along with photos which was much appreciated. I would highly recommend Kassandra!”
“Tevon was great with my dog. He took her in last minute, sent updates and videos throughout her stay, and she seemed very happy with him when I picked her up. I would absolutely trust him to watch her again.”
About: Hi, I'm Damara! I have grown up with dogs my entire life. We recently said goodbye to our senior Boston Terrier in January of this year. We have owned multiple Boston Terriers for the past 20 years. I also recently fostered a Goberian (half Golden Retriever/half Husky) for 4 months so am comfortable with large dogs as well as small. I work a hybrid schedule that I manage myself so can be home most of the time with your pet. If I do need to be in the office I am only gone for 4-5 hours at a time. I have a fenced in courtyard that's great for quick potty breaks and lounging in the sun. But I also really enjoy long walks so can accomodate whatever your pets prefer. Happy to discuss everything and will do whatever is best for your pet. We also own a Syrian Hamster named Cookie Dough that is completely secure in her enclosure. Your pet would have to be ok with children (extra play time for your pet) because I have a 9 year old daughter who is here most of the time. I will be the person providing care to your pet 100% of the time. At no time will my child be responsible for or left alone with your pet. Any additional questions, please ask. We are not yet ready for our own full time dog and we miss having one around so I figured we would give Rover a try. Look forward to meeting you and your pet. I currently work a hybrid schedule that I manage myself. I can mostly be home full time for your pet. If I have to go into the office it would only be for 4-5 hours. I have a fenced in brick courtyard that is great for quick potty breaks or basking in the sun. Also comfortable walking your pet long distances if they need a lot of exercise.
“Maria is an amazing sitter!. She is so good with my boy Franklin and has a beautiful home for dogs to feel welcome and be comfortable. I know I can always count on her to provide the best care for Franklin while I am away! ☺️”
“This is our second time booking with Dana. My pups came back and passed out on the couch for the rest of the night! She was responsive and communicative. She immediately let me know when she had a concern and was willing to go to the emergency vet if needed. I will definitely rebook!”

Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.
Victoria was great! Super communicative and shared lots of fun videos of Harper during her stay. She was watching several dogs, all of whom had a calm demeanor suggesting they felt safe and loved while staying with Victoria. Will definitely book again! (Harper says thank you 🐾🐾)
Elizabeth was amazing!! We took our 12 year old small dog, who has alot of anxiety and issues with being left alone and I have never seen her so happy with a sitter!! Elizabeth gave our Mia so much attention and love that we were afraid that she wouldn't want to come home with us. I hope that she never stops dog sitting because I am sure we will never find someone as perfect for our Mia as Elizabeth.
Raeann was our first boarding experience using Rover and we will 1000% board with her again. She was very communicative with us during our vacation and sent many pictures! Our dog was very comfortable with her and absolutely loved sitting outside on her deck. I was most appreciative of the fact that makes sure she doesn’t overlap boarding days with other clients in the event something would delay our travel to get back home in time.
Kassandra is the sweetest person we have ever left our dog with. She was very punctual and picked Leo up and dropped him off at the agreed upon time. Leo needed meds and extra care due to his multiple medical problems but Kassandra took care of him very well. Leo was very happy with Kassandra as I could see when she was leaving after dropping him off and Leo didn’t want her to leave. Kassandra gave us daily updates and additional updates as needed so the communication was excellent. I cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of Leo!
We had such a great experience with them watching our dog overnight. They were kind, reliable, and kept us updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was well cared for, comfortable, and clearly got plenty of attention and love. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them.
Tia and her family were amazing. They provided photos and videos multiple times a day. They have a very large and safe backyard that our pups enjoyed. She even taught our mini dachshunds to safely use her stairs. She informed us at pickup that one of our pups tried to mark his territory several times, which is our fault because he has yet to be fixed. We were not aware that this would be an issue because he does great at home. I sincerly appreciate her kindness, patience, understanding to the situation. I on the other hand, was very embarrassed and plan on making that neutering appointment before we book with her again. 10/10 highly recommend.
He was very on top of my dogs schedule and craziness and was so attentive ! I could tell my dog was comfortable and at home here. I felt so at ease due to his great communication and concern for my baby. I would send him here anytime, my boy definitely has a new friend :)
Lacee was great! We chose her because she only takes 1 dog at a time (important for us, since our dog can be reactive to other dogs), and she used to have a large dog, so I figured she'd be able to handle our dog if she pulled the leash at some point. Lacee was easy to work with. She was on top of everything and responsive to any messages. She even sent us a little update with a picture of our dog each day. Would book her again.
