“We were so lucky to have Cathy! Our dog is a bit nervous about new situations, so we told Cathy that it would take a couple days before she would warm up. Three hours later, Cathy sent us a picture of her cuddled up on the couch. Our pup clearly felt right at home and our vacation was stress-free as a result. Thank you Cathy!”
“Crystal is professional, friendly and responsive. My dog Stella took an immediate liking to Crystal’s home. I felt confident that Crystal would take good care of her. I would definitely use Crystal’s services again!”
“I wish I could give Heather and John more than 5 stars! They took wonderful care of both my timid older dog and crazy puppy boarding for over a week, and sent lots of pictures and updates to calm my nerves about leaving the little guy for the first time. The dogs appeared at home and comfortable from the first day. Heather and John were also flexible about extending for a couple of extra days when weather changed our travel plans, saving the end of our trip. Highly recommend!”

“10 out of 5 stars! I felt so comfortable with Angel and Yara (and daughter Zoe) taking care of my dog. I got every day feedback and videos, and it was obvious my Cooper was happy and well cared for. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to leave and come home with me - but I guess he loves me too. 😁😁😁 Thank you for giving us a worry-free vacation.”

Needless to say, I would definitely book with her again.”
“In all my years of moving around and needing to trust a new Rover city in each town, Ashley and her family were hands down THE BEST, most compassionate and caring I have come across. We are returning upon every chance we can!!!”

Our dog stayed with Alice over a week, and we were very happy with how the stay went overall. It was clear that she genuinely cared for our dog’s well-being, and our dog clearly had a wonderful time and came home happy and well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Alice as a reliable and thoughtful dog caregiver.

Emily is awesome!! She came highly recommended, and after leaving Clover with her and Lamar I understand why. Emily and Lamar are super communicative and trustworthy, and clearly love the dogs they bring into their home. My dog, Clover, was instantly comfortable with them. They asked me for detailed instructions about how to care for Clover and followed them closely, and even took her to the dog park and on long walks. I would absolutely recommend Emily and will definitely be asking her to dog sit for me again soon!
Molly and Henry and their dog Hank were wonderful hosts for our dog Lucy. They welcomed her into their home, took her for walks, and gave her lots of love. Lucy had plenty of human and canine company over the week. Molly was super responsive and sent plenty of updates and photos. We wouldn't hesitate to book them again next time we travel. Thank you!!
Agus is extremely kind and even allowed my puppy to stay an extra night when I had an emergency. He is super flexible, easy to work with, and a very nice person! Rue always comes home so happy and tired from all the playing with Harry Potter!! Thank you so much Agus— your kindness doesn’t go unnoticed!
We were away for 10 days, and Africa took great care of our senior dog Dexter. She was very attentive to his needs and kept to his schedule, ensuring he felt comfortable and at ease the entire time. Throughout our trip, Africa kept us updated with photos and messages, which really put our minds at rest. She’s quick to respond and was also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. We’re so grateful for her care, and we’d absolutely trust her with Dexter again in the future!
Allison and Alex were life savers for us when another sitter could no longer take care of our boy in the middle of our vacation. we were so stressed out, but allison and alex offered to take Bernie in and take care of him. They even picked him up from the previous sitter's house while we were out of state and had no one else to care for him. They sent pictures and very good with communication. they got him a toy to goo home with. thank you so much, 110% recommend, and hopefully we get another chance to bring bernie by!!
This was my first time using Rover and Alexandra (and Walker) made it a great experience. Alexandra responded timely and when I met her, I knew she was a good fit for my dog. She walked my dog, took lots of pictures and shared photos and updates. I would highly recommend!
