“Kelly is warm and genuine in her love for dogs! I was confident my dog would be safe, relaxed, and well-cared for in Kelly’s home. I picked up a happy dog and am pleased! Thank you Kelly for a terrific 1st boarding.”
“Trusting your dog with someone is hard but Veronica was so great! welcoming and accommodating to a late request. Her and her family were caring and loving to my dog. She sent lots of photos and updates and has a beautiful back yard for them to play :)”
“Celeste took great care of our fur babies. She sent constant updates and photos. Celeste was very quick to respond to any message. We were worried due to the fact that neither of my cat nor dog has ever stayed outside our home. They were just fine they looked great and very happy when we picked them up. We have our sitter for as long as she does it. Thank you Celeste and Violet!”
“Hailey was amazing with Ellie while I was out of town for Easter! She sent great updates at least once a day and tons of pictures of Ellie enjoying her time there. I’ll definitely use Hailey again when I’m out of town next.”

“Our cavapoo LOVED his stay at Kyle and Dan’s! They were so easy to communicate with, send constant updates and were very flexible with our changing schedule. Our dog felt loved and secure…we love that they’re home so he had companionship. We’d recommend to fam and friends in a heartbeat.”
“Our dog had a wonderful time. She sent us photos every day and let us know how our dog was doing. She even gave him a bath. Prior to picking him up. Christina was absolutely wonderful. We will definitely use her again”
“This was my first time using this app or even using an outside service to watch my babies. Lance did an amazing job watching them. He kept me updated and sent photos daily. I believe my babies were in safe hands. Definitely recommend him to watch your babies and I will be requesting him again in the future!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Adriana! She is so caring and gentle with our sweet Coco. She sent pictures and videos a couple time a day. We could see how well Coco had settled in. She has a beautiful backyard. Her house is immaculate and beautiful! She waited until the sun had gone down and it was cooler to take Coco for a walk so he could get out and get some exercise with her sweet little dog Kayla. Coco was so at home with her. There was not a bunch of other dogs running around. It was not noisy. It was calm and peaceful. he is an elderly dog so he took naps and explored her backyard. He did everything that you would want your dog to do while you are away. He too, had a real vacation! We will definitely be using Adriana in the future for all of our Coco care needs. She is absolutely wonderful. I highly highly recommend Adriana!”
“Rachel and Christian are AMAZING! Super communicative and Jessie loves visiting them and has so much fun! Thanks for being so flexible and taking such great care of Jessie!”
“Lou watched our GSP for 9 days while we went on a family vacation that we could not take him with us. We had to book last minute after family friend was no longer able to help us, not only was he available but he made time for us to bring Jax over twice to meet/play his dogs twice. He also accommodate Jax raw food diet and high energy needs. Will definitely be using Lou again! Could not recommend enough!”
“Kathryn was so kind and sweet to not only us, but our Koko girl. She updated us throughout her whole stay! I’m so happy we found her and we’ll definitely be bringing Koko back! :)”

“Leah, her husband, and their kids did a great job watching my puppy, Arwen. Leah communicated clearly and went over and beyond to watch my pup. She is super friendly and her family really enjoyed watching my pup. I plan to use her again in the future.”
“Melanie and Ryan are a gem! So glad we found them and that they were available to take care of our little Chiweenie during a spur-of-the-moment travel trip. They were friendly, responsive, attentive, and enthusiastic. Much appreciated!! <3 Will definitely use their services again!!”
“This was my first time leaving my Chihuahua in the care of Joy and Matthew, and I will definitely call upon them again when I need to board her. They provided me regular updates and were so attentive to her needs. I knew she was in good hands while I was out of town - priceless.”

Central dog parents share their Rover experiences
Gina did a great job of watching our two dogs. She sent us lots of pictures and videos of our dogs playing.She also spent a lot of time playing with our dogs and her house and yard are set up to allow the dogs to be dogs. We plan to use Gina in our future travels.
Lance has taken care of Nikko several times and always does a fantastic job. I never have to worry about my baby when I'm out of town because I know he's in such good hands. Lance is super flexible about timing and send me great pics. Nikko comes home happy and tired, just the way he should. Lance is the best!!
Kristin & Jeffrey are the epitome of what I was looking for, for peace of mind leaving our pups while we were out of town. They were so kind to us and to our tiny dogs. Knowing they already have a tiny dog and seeing their interaction with him made me feel more secure that ours would also be in good hands with them, and the sure were. Kristin & Jeffrey were great about consistently sending updates and photos & were always very quick to answer my questions & concerns. I highly recommend this home & family to others for dog sitting.
We will certainly use John and his wife again in the future! We felt very comfortable with leaving our babies in their care. Both of our dogs came home happy and healthy. Our high anxiety baby seemed completely calm which was excellent to see. Overall it was a fabulous experience.
