“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.”


“Kyle & Dan are wonderful! From the initial point of contact, through our dog's stay with them, they were so easy to work with. They understood our dog's needs and respected our requests, sent regular photos and messages throughout his stay, and cared for him as though he was their own. I am so thankful to have found them through Rover and will definitely use them again. Highly recommend!”


“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.”


“Asher is amazing, my dogs love going to his place and he is always so accommodating to my schedule changes! Super nice and appreciate him so much!”


“Eric was the best. I could tell by the picture and video updates that our dogs were loving the sleep over. We will definitely keep using Eric in the future, in fact we have already booked our next boarding event. I cant thank Eric enough for making it easier to leave our pups and have some kid free adventures.”


“What a great family! Sirius was so well taken care of and Curtis' daughters loved and spoiled my pup! I was sent daily updates and pictures which I loved. When I picked him up he was packed and ready to come home, and as we got in the car one of the girls yelled "I love you Sirius!" Which was so dang cute! I would highly recommend Curtis and his family!”


“Steven took care of our pups while we were on a vacation. They took excellent care of the pups, sent pictures daily, of them playing and eating- giving us the reassurance that our pups were doing well. 100% Recommended”


“Celeste is truly the best there is to look after your furry friend. I was constantly updated with adorable photos that helped reassure my inner anxious dog mom. I will be booking again with her, and I highly recommend her services.”


“Although we have used and been happy with Rover pet sitters in the past, we feel in finding Adriana we hit the Jackpot!!!! From our initial contact with her we were impressed with her lovely and caring demeanor. She related so naturally and comfortably with us and our little Brynnley, demonstrating her kindness and obvious love of these little fur-babies. Our plan always when we need to leave Brynn in someone's care is to provide a safe and positive experience for him and we certainly were assured of this through the many messages, pictures and videos Adriana sent several times a day! And I would be remiss if I didn't mention her beautiful home and yard...what a fun place for puppers to run and play...and comfy couches to cuddle. Great experience...thank you Adriana & Kayla”


“Veronica and her family always do a great job watching our boys! It's conforming to know that we can rely on them and don't have to worry about how's our dogs are doing. Thanks again!”


“James & Erin were absolutely wonderful with Bentley!! We had to change the dates/times on them a few times due the LA fires and they were so incredibly understanding, kind and flexible. We received updates & photos of B and looks like the dogs he got to play with were all so happy!! We’d absolutely book them again. Thank you so much!”


“Always thrilled Rachel and her family are there for Mika.. Mika loves loves going to their beautiful home. She truly thinks she’s in Disneyland w all her doggy friends and love she receives. This is a home abounding in ❤️ LOVE.. Truly appreciate all you do..”


“Lance was wonderful! Very accommodating and flexible, sent plenty of updates and took amazing care of my dogs. Would 100% recommend and trust him to care for my babies again.”


“Wonderful experience boarding with Melanie and Ryan for 5 nights! Daisy had fun playing with Otis and was clearly well attended to. Had a lot of great picture and video updates which was really nice while we were out of town. They also gave her an opportunity to splash around in a kiddie pool to cool off. Would highly recommend!!”


“Leah and her family took excellent care of Cooper! The pictures she sent showed how comfortable and cared for Cooper was during his stay. Highly recommend Leah!”

“Sarah was so great at caring for my dog, Luna. Luna doesn’t like to eat when not at home and Sarah went above and beyond to make sure she didn’t starve. She asked if she could add rice to Luna’s food and even hand fed it to her. Sarah was great at communicating and sending updates/pictures and asking questions when needed. She was also accommodating to our very late pick up time. We didn’t have to worry about Luna while we were away because we knew she was in great hands and being well cared for. The little treat bag for Luna that Sarah sent home with us at pick-up was a very thoughtful touch. Thank you, Sarah!”


“Leanna was nothing short of amazing with Atlantis. She provided a safe, loving home for my fur baby. which made it easier to leave her for a couple days. My baby had extra needs which she was provided and cared for. Thank you.”

Central dog parents share their Rover experiences
They were super accommodating for Mochis first stay. Kept in touch and were super nice. Mochi loved staying with them and had so much fun, definitely rebooking with them!

Scott was great to work with and took great care of my dog Spencer. I would use his service again and recommend him.

Can’t recommend Laura enough! I could tell my fur baby was treated like family and loved! I was always sent updates and she was quick to reply!

Gina is amazing! We have used Gina several times now and she is truly the best! She is flexible with drop offs/pick ups, she is always providing updates with pictures and videos. Buster always has a great time when he visits and always comes back tired from all the play time he gets with other dogs and/or from her children. Buster really has a second home with this family and I wouldn't pick another place to send him, they have so much love to give and it makes my heart so happy to know that he is in great hands when we are away :)

Super friendly and caring people! Kept me updated daily with photos. Flexible with my booking times. We enjoyed our vacation, knowing our dog Ruby was in great hands! Will definitely use Laree and Keith in the future! :)

Lance was exceptional! Great communication, fast replies and sends photos daily! He took great care of Koda! I’ll def be booking him again and again!

We had such a great experience with Kelly! She was incredibly kind, super communicative, and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Our dog had the absolute best time—lots of play, love, and attention. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book again!

Cheyenne was wonderful. Very easy to communicate with. Kept us updated. Pups are very happy and well taken care of.

My two little ladies, just loved being with David and Angela. They had fun play dates, even my older lady was acting like a puppy while staying with them. They can't wait to go back!

Shelly was amazing! She took great care of our dog while away for a week. She is very communicative and accommodating for all the dogs that stay with her.

Leanna and her family did a great job watching Sadie! I highly recommend them and will definitely ask them to sit for her again in the future.

Veronica and her husband were amazing!! Super great communication from start to finish and I just knew my dog was in great hands. Veronica stayed in touch with pictures of my pup and let me know how he was doing. I will definitely be using them again when we go out of town again!!!

Marla took great care of my baby! She made sure to keep me updated on how much fun he was having with her two weenie dogs. Highly recommend!

Meredith was awesome! We left our puppy with her and her husband for 10 days and she kept us posted with pics and updates every day. Meredith is a great dog owner & sitter, would love to book again

Ali was absolutely amazing with our dog! She sent daily updates which made it real comforting to us being out of town. I definitely recommend Ali as your next dog sitter!!!

This was my first time having Kara sit for my dog. She was awesome and my dog was very well taken care as if he were her own. Will definitely be requesting jer services in the future.

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.
