“Nicole is honestly the best river. Her and her family love my dog when they watch her, and she is treated like a part of the family. I love getting the picture updates from Nicole and I know my dog is in good hands with her.”
“First time using Rover and Enrique exceeded our expectations! Was so responsive, sent pics, and updates throughout the day. We were so lucky to have found him, and he will be a go to in the future! He watched our very young puppy and gave her the love and attention she needed (especially being so young). Our puppy also made a new bestie with his sweet dog Buttons. Definitely gave us peace of mind knowing our new puppy was with a great family!”

“Alisha and Cameron took such great care of our dog Bear! He was so happy at their house. They provided lots of updates and pictures. I know he got lots of love. They have been our favorite Rover family to date!”

“You were amazing. You took care of my baby and kept me updated on your activities. You even agree to keep him for few more hrs due to our fight arriving late. I do appreciate you for going above and beyond for us.”

“Sophan was wonderful!! She sent pictures every day and kept me informed on what he was doing. Dudley was so tired when I bought him home because he had so much fun! I will definitely use Sophan again when we need someone to watch Dudley!”


“David is wonderful with our cavapoo Teddy. He made sure Teddy has a lot of activities. Our puppy enjoyed his time with the company of David’s dogs. David is very responsive to messages. He provided updates with pictures. Our puppy enjoyed his spring break at David’s house. We were not worried because we knew he was in excellent hands. We will definitely use David for dog boarding again.”
“Sophie loves her time at Jaci and Jamie’s home - she enjoys playing with their pup and we get lots of updates and pictures during the time she’s there. Highly recommend and hope to continue to use them for dogsitting in the future!”

“Cindy was super nice! Also made sure we got lots of pictures and video of our puppy! Would recommend her to anyone. She was also very responsive with messages and coordinating everything! If we need it again we will definately be checking with her first!”


“Daisy practically doesn’t want to come home with me after staying with Patti and Patrick! They’re in demand for a reason. I love when she stays with them because I know she’ll be well taken care of and have her own vacation while I’m out of town!”

“We were very happy with Mochi's stay at Alicia and Simon's. They sent us pictures and videos and communicated with us the entire time we were gone. Mochi was so sad to leave their house and must have had fun because he has pretty much been sleeping since he got back!”


“Lori was amazing! She made Nipsey feel like a part of the family! She updated me everyday and sent pictures of Nipsey. Nipsey definitely enjoyed himself and we will most certainly book her again!”

“Promise took great care of my dog, he made friends with her dogs, and he looked great when we picked him up him up. Would definitely recommend her, and bring him back again!”

“We had a very last minute booking for our puppy and Trudy was more than accommodating. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the day, and even tips about her training. We knew Annie was in good hands and she had a blast- we will be bringing her back again :)”

“Wesley was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Frankie. From the moment I dropped him off, it was evident that Frankie was treated like family and genuinely well cared for. Wesley and his parents have a beautiful home with a secure, fenced-in yard, which made us feel incredibly comfortable. We were able to travel out of the country with complete peace of mind knowing my dog was safe, happy, and truly prioritized. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Wesley to anyone looking for exceptional care. I received photos and updates. We look forward to planning our next adventure and rebooking with Wesley!”


“Andrea is a lover of animals. She loved my dogs as if they were her own, and I felt at peace, knowing that they were well taken care of while we were gone. She was so kind and such a good communicator. She sent me photos of my pups every day! I feel very lucky to have met this contact and will absolutely be booking her in the future.”

“William took care of our Mini Schnauzer for 11 days while we were at a national conference. He sent daily photos and words about our dog. This was a daily refresher for us knowing our dog was in good hands. Communicating with William was superb!”

“Shreya watched my 4 year old Bernedoodle for 10 days. From the meet and greet, I could tell he would be in good, attentive hands. When I went to pick him up, he stood in the foyer with an “I live here now” look on his face. Clearly, he had a good time! My return flight was delayed and Shreya was very accommodating with modifying pickup. The videos she sent helped put my dog-mom heart at ease. I highly recommend Shreya to care for your fur babies!”

Dayton pet parents share their Rover experiences
Leo throughly enjoyed his stay with Hannah and Brandon. They took very good care of our high energy dog. They shared pictures and videos of our dog at their place. He was very comfortable at their house which also has a huge backyard. Leo would love to play with new found friend in the future. We would highly recommend Hannah and Brandon to take care of your fur friends.
