“This was my first time using Rover, and Justine and Brett were great! It looks like my doggo had a good time, and I felt very secure leaving him with Justine and Brett. I got photos every day, and it looked like he was having a blast. My flight home got delayed, and J&B were gracious and flexible. I’ll for sure use them again for dog care.”

“I am an anxious pet parent and feel confident leaving my two high maintenance hounds in Kimberly’s care. We could clearly tell that the dogs were loved on while we were gone, and Kimberly goes out of her way to make them feel comfortable. Would rebook in the future for sure!”


“Celeste did an amazing job of watching my husky and provided great care overall. She followed any special instructions and sent multiple updates each day and was always available for communication. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for boarding.”

“I’m so happy to have left my pup with Robynn over the weekend. She is super nice and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She provided updates (pic and videos) throughout the time my dog stayed with her. We will definitely be working with her again!”


“Valentina was great she kept me informed with Riley Riley seemed to have a good time I would definitely recommend her very reasonable and again very close to home thank you Val entina for your great service”

“Lynda is the best! She cared for our Muffin like family and was super communicative and flexible around our schedule (especially when our plans changed and flight home was cancelled). So glad we found her and would recommend her highly to anyone looking for a helping hand with their pooch. Thank you, Lynda!!!”

“We had another great experience with Will caring for our dog during a short weekend getaway! So glad he was available. Quick, responsive and clear communication. Super attentive care. Our dog, Jackie, was happy to stay with Will again. Definitely plan to book him again.”

“Penny looked after Ginger as a trial night before we go on a longer trip this summer. I could tell Ginger had a blast and Penny is very caring with the dogs. I’m not concerned with leaving my pup with Penny when I have to be gone this summer. Thank you Penny and Ginger and I will see you again soon!”

“We had such an amazing experience booking our dog sitting with Ashley. She was very kind and sweet with our dog, and was very easy to keep in contact with - she responded very quickly with updates on how our dog was doing, and sent plenty of pictures. We will definitely book with her again in the future, and highly recommend her!”

“Matt and family were incredibly great to my pet, Peanut. Mine is a super nervous and shy cockapoo mix who is on anti-anxiety medication. The family was welcoming and understanding. They followed all our recommendations to keep peanut comfy and even gave him a soft fur blanket to make him feel home. They took him out for plenty of walks even during those freezing days. Bless their heart! They shared plenty of pictures and kept us updated about peanut. It was nice to see my peanut hanging out with their pets pepper and peanut. They are wonderful people and an amazing family that truly loves dogs!”

“Christine did an amazing job taking care of my dog. She was very communicative throughout the entire process. From reaching out in the beginning to ask her availability, to picking him up a few days later, she was great about responding to texts very promptly but would also send lots of updates throughout my time away from him. It was great to see in pictures and videos that he was having a good time and being well taken care of. I would happily ask Christine again to take care of my dog and recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust to watch their pets”

“Sarah was excellent! She sent us photos and updates of our dog Gus while we were out of the country for two weeks. She was understanding and able to care for our senior dog with special needs. Would highly recommend!”

“We just picked up Glory from an 11-day stay with Jessica, and she seems to have had a GREAT time! Glory is a rescue that we've had less than a year, and this is the 1st time we have left her overnight; needless to say, we were worried! However, Jessica kept us up-to-date with pics & videos (even though we were in Mexico!), so we could relax and enjoy our vacation. We are EXTREMELY pleased with Jessica's care of our Glory-girl and will definitely use her again!!!! 5++++++ stars! Deb & Bob”

“Millie was actually pretty upset to leave! Sarah and her husband/son were wonderful. Their house is beautiful with an amazing backyard. They watched Millie for 5 days. We were at a wedding out of town with our 5 kids, which we were all participating in, so it was pretty hectic. Communication was great, pictures included and we were able to enjoy ourselves for the whole trip.”

“David and Susan were easy to schedule with and very accommodating for our dog! They hosted our lab for a long vacation and made sure she was loved while we were away! Thank you!”

“My usual sitter had an emergency & had to cancel on us. I found Rover.com & Edgar came to our rescue!! He was extremely accommodating with last minute plans for our two pups!! He has a beautiful fenced back yard & family that also helped to make our fur babies feel more at home. I could tell from update photos & messages daily that my boys were being well taken care of. Highly recommended!! Thanks again, Edgar & fam ❤️”

“Amanda & Anton are both so amazing to work with! They have a lot of great experience with various types of dogs and got my dog assimilated into their clan seamlessly. I was very impressed as my dog is often mopey whenever I leave and has had issues with some dogs and cats in the past. The got him to be part of the family in less than 24 hours and he has a great weekend away! My dog is also special needs and has a lot of food allergies. They did a great job handling all his various medications and feeding routine. Their attention to detail and care for his needs made me feel better to leave him for the weekend and I felt very confident that he was in good hands.”

“Kent was an amazing sitter. He is very communicative, and showed great care for our pup. He is calm and patient, and has a wonderful demeanor. It is no wonder he formed a great bond with her. We would very much recommend him to anyone. Thank you Kent!”

“This was our second time leaving Maggie with Robert, and once again, it was a great experience. He sent regular updates with videos and pictures, which made it so easy to feel comfortable while we were away. Maggie got tons of playtime and socialization with the other pups, and she came home happy and tired. We really appreciate the care Robert gives her and will definitely book with him again in the future!”

Edgar helped us out last minute. He communicated during the entire two night stay, provided lots of pictures and updates and was patient and understanding with our dog since this was the first time we had left him with someone else. We appreciated everything he did for our dog and can’t recommend him enough! Thank you Edgar and his kids for loving our dog while we were gone!

Andrea was wonderful! She took our baby Mocha out for walks every day, sent lots of photos, and was prompt and responsive. Our dog Mocha loved staying with her. It was a wonderful experience and I would recommend her highly, Truly made a great vacation knowing she was in such good care.

We had a great experience with Paige! She was wonderfully communicative, sending us regular updates and photos so we knew our pup was happy and cared for. She was also super flexible when we were running ahead of schedule, allowing us to pick him up early. Her responsiveness and kindness made the whole process stress-free. We’d definitely use her again!

My dog was in really good hands. Rafal was easy to book and communicate. He was patient and understanding the needs of my senior dog with almost no vision and age-related issues. My dog actually came home relaxed and rested. Will book again if Rafal takes him😊 Thank you so much!

Angelica was absolutely wonderful! So kind, thoughtful, and caring throughout the entire stay. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such great hands. You can really tell she loves what she does, and it shows in the way she cares. I’m so grateful for her and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust. Thank you so much again, Angelica!
