“She is just amazing, there is no other comment, she took care of my puppy and kept updating me about him. Really thankful for all the great services that she provided”
“Samantha took great care of our Old English Sheepdog (Mick) while we were away for a week over the holidays. We were updated with photos and can’t say enough good things about her and the care/attention she provided. We highly recommend Samantha and will gladly be repeat customers. Thank you Samantha!”
“It’s my first time that I had to leave Abu, and Stephanie did a really great job taking care of her. I got a lot of pics and videos show Abu’s happy face everyday. Penny is so also caring and I think they make such a cute team! Just adorable.”
“Can’t thank Heather and Matthew enough for taking such great care of our dog Tucker. Tucker can be a bit anxious though he settled in nicely and had a great first visit! Booking again right away!”
“Charlene took great care of our Gracie for a day and overnight while we were out of town. We were fortunate that she was able to accommodate us on short notice! Charlene also sent us lots of pictures and some videos where we could tell that Gracie was having lots of fun playing with her own dog Dora, as well as some downtime resting with Dora. We would definitely be happy leaving Gracie again in Charlene’s care.”
“Teena and Wayne were absolutely wonderful! We had never used Rover before and were nervous because we have a senior dog, and usually we have a family member that watches our Norah for us. But at the last minute they had an emergency and we booked with Teena and Wayne. The whole experience was wonderful and they took care of our Norah like she was their own. Thanks again Teena and Wayne we will definitely be using you again in the near future!”
“Hayley was amazing! we could tell coco had a great time during her stay since she came home tired. She was very responsive and took care of all coco's needs. Definitely recommend her”
“My dog Jordan was well taken care of. I highly recommend Raisa for dog boarding. She let me know how my pup was doing and sent pictures. She was very kind and I am grateful to have found her. Would definitely go through her again. 10/5 stars!”
“We are so grateful for Genevieve and Alex for the great care that they gave Rascal. He’s a senior pup with special needs ( blind, meds, wobbly legs) and the patience, stimulating environment (including fun toys and walks), pictures, videos and updates put my mind at ease. I fully recommend Genevieve and thank her for treating Rascal like her own. I absolutely will book with her again!”
“Her and her husband were amazing with our little guy Cooper♥️ We are very grateful that they were able to take him in last minute and that our pup had a lot of fun!”
“Courtney’s provided the best stay for Amaya, our standard poodle. She was flexible about drop off time and pick up time as we were traveling from out of state to the Falls and coordinating with two other families. She treated Amaya like one of her own. We appreciated the photos and videos and attention she gave our girl. I don’t think Amaya missed us!”
“One of the most lovely experiences. Super kind and clearly passionate about animals and their care. My dog didn’t want to leave! Excellent communication, beautiful home, genuine person. Highly recommended!”
“Absolutely fantastic with my 14 year old pup. She communicated promptly and well. Very pleased with how my pup was cared for and returned home!”
“Camila and Santiago looked after my cat at their home for two weeks. He is a very shy cat that has struggled to adjust when I have left him with friends. But he warmed up to Camila and Santiago so quickly that I was amazed. They have a calm home and sent regular photo and video updates. I could not recommend them enough and will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Trisha was fantastic. It was Charlie’s first experience going to a sitter and I was a little nervous. Tricia’s house is warm and friendly. She greeted us at the door and engaged with Charlie immediately. He even felt comfortable enough to run through the house to get a toy! What I really appreciated was how Trisha asked about Charlie’s likes/dislikes and routine. She works really hard to ensure everything is as consistent and comfortable as possible. When I picked him up the next day he was happy and energetic. Thank you Trisha for making our first Rover experience an awesome one. We look forward to Charlie’s next sleepover with you.”
“Ruth was quite attentive to Molly, as well as putting my mind at ease with daily notes. Molly was well cared for. Ruth was patient with Mollys anxiety on hardwood floors, by putting out her carpets and runners! We will connect with Ruth again!”

Meagan and her family were absolutely wonderful with Ellie! They were so kind, caring, and attentive, treating her like part of their own family. They went above and beyond to make sure she felt loved and comfortable. We really appreciated the updates and all the extra care they gave her. Ellie had an amazing stay, and we would definitely book with Meagan again! ❤️ Highly recommend!
The only thing better than to really like the sitter you’ve chosen is when your pet likes them even more ! Connor was an amazing sitter, kept us up to date with detailed messages and meaningful updates not to mention a whole lot of great pictures. Connor was very attentive to Teddys needs and understands him and his personality. Connor even did a little training on their walks. We highly recommend using Connor and we will definitely reach out to him again when in the area !
Chelsea did an amazing job at making our dog Juana comfortable and providing lots of updates. Juana is a very social dog and Chelsea made sure she was well exercised and mentally stimulated with lots of outside time. I would definitely recommend Chelsea to others for their pet sitting needs!
Bailey was an amazing sitter! She was able to take Eva on very short notice and was incredibly accommodating, communicative, and kind throughout the entire stay. From the moment we met, I felt comfortable leaving Eva with her. She provided plenty of photo updates, which gave me peace of mind and made it clear that Eva was being well cared for and having a great time. Overall, it was a great experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Bailey again. I’m looking forward to rebooking with her whenever I’m in the Niagara region! 😊
Melissa was one of the greatest borders I’ve ever had my dogs stay at. She works from home so almost always with them, is extremely accommodating, quick on responsiveness and great at providing updates with pictures. Believe it or not, she boarded my THREE Dobermans, 2 girls and a boy, for a full 24h while I had to get out of town. Also a plus for owners with big dogs who play rough with other dogs; nothing to worry about, she does not have a dog of her own living with her! Always very positive and professional in our interactions, will definitely use her boarding services again if ever needed!
