“Eva and her family provided exceptional dog boarding service over the span of 3 nights. She goes above and beyond and incorporated our dog in her daily life. We came back to a happy and well-cared-for pup. Highly recommend her 5-star service!”


“Fiona was great to deal with and I was very comfortable leaving my 2 year old lab with her. She has a great property with lots of room for the dogs to play. I could tell she was well versed in dog behaviour and was attentive to the dogs in her care. Fiona was very flexible and pleasant. I received updates when requested and she was always quick to respond. Ernie came back tired and happy. I would definitely recommend and bring Ernest back to stay another time. Thank you!”


“Wenger and Changhe were worth the money. They sent us daily pictures and were generally concerned for Trigger's health and happiness. Definitely would use them again.”


“Eden and Jacob were amazing with our dog! They were caring, reliable, and kept us updated the whole time. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”


“We had our furry baby Avery with Carmen for a few days and our girl was so happy with her the whole time. Carmen made us feel at ease while we were away,knowing our girl is in good hands. We were thrilled to know that Avery was going for long walks, playing fetch and interacting with Carmen's boys. She has a blast at her place indeed. We will be booking her again❤️”


“This past weekend our family used Rover for the first time and Adam kindly and quickly responded to my booking request as well as any questions I had. He kept contact throughout Nova's stay and sent us pictures along the way. It was FANTASTIC to be able to go away and have her stay in a safe, warm and caring environment. We would highly recommend and hope to book with Adam again in the future.”

I will definitely consider Judy for any future needs and will recommend her to anyone who is looking for an affectionate person who can take care of their paw friend.”


“Claudia was very accommodating with timing. She sent pictures throughout my dogs stay and sent updates. Will definitely be rebooking as her service was excellent. 100% recommend booking with her!”


“This week was Ollie’s second time stay in Lynn’s house for a whole week. I am so glad Ollie enjoyed staying there, and playing with dog everyday no matter its snow or muddy. When we come pick up, it’s a smell and dirty boy 😆 so I can see how much fun he had there. So glad Lynn took care Ollie so well and make he feel comfortable like home.”


“Belle is always great with my little dog. We recently boarded him for 3 nights and he was well taken care of, and Belle made sure we got regular photo updates. I'd trust her again with my guy anytime!”

“Kara was took such good care of Seven! She sent me regular pictures and I could tell Seven was happy and comfortable, and he was very relaxed when I picked him up. Kara was also kind enough to accept to board Seven on a short notice which really helped me. Thank you so much Kara for being so kind with Seven. We will come back next time we're in Waterloo!”

“If I could leave more stars ⭐️ I would. Charlanne looked after my dog in a loving, safe environment. She sent me many pictures and updates.”


“Dawn was a lifesaver! Our original sitter canceled last minute, and Dawn accepted our booking the same day. We were so grateful she could take Choki in on such short notice. She kept us updated with photos and took amazing care of him. When I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and even freshly washed and groomed—he looked better than when we dropped him off! I couldn’t recommend Dawn more. She’s caring, professional, and truly goes above and beyond. Thank you, Dawn!”


“My dog loves going to see Cindy and her family. He gets pampered, and lots of exercise. Would recommend to anyone looking for someone to watch their pet.”


“Charlie had his first stay with Donna last weekend. He had a fantastic time playing with Lucy, Donna’s dog. I got updates on how he’s doing as I asked for them and I could tell that Donna sincerely cared about him and wanted him to feel at home. He adored her daughter too and was her constant companion. Charlie will definitely be back!”


“Jill has been an absolute blessing! Our Jade was taken care of very well. She is prompt, reliable, trustworthy and gave updates the whole time our dog was with her. Definitely 5 star service!!”


“What wonderful people to deal with for our little fur baby Bella. Finding someone to feel comfortable leaving your pet with can be stressful, but we never felt that way at all with Abby and Ryan! Our dog likes a lot of attention and we always feel bad leaving her at a business for boarding as she will spend a lot of her day in a crate. Abby & Ryan provided lots of daily snuggles for our little cuddle monster :)”

Stratford dog parents share their Rover experiences
Abby and Ryan were great with our senior lab. They kept us updated and were flexible when our travel plans were unexpectedly delayed. Definitely recommend!

Thanks Jill for the great communication and taking such good care of our girl. The pictures of her sleeping with her feet in the air shows she feels safe and content with you. It is nice to have someone we trust to look after our Orly.

When we dropped our Ivy off, she was very excited to be there. She is a big dog and Kayla had no worries and was very positive and her confidence and knowledge of caring for dogs was obvious. Ivy had great stay. Thank you
